Features: This book includes 112 calculation examples, systematically introducing the basic methods and steps for designing reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structural members according to various limit states under different conditions, as specified in the "Code for Design of Highway Reinforced Concrete and Prestressed Concrete Bridges and Culverts" (JTG D62-2004). It provides fundamental formulas, load-bearing calculation diagrams, applicable conditions of formulas, and practical design and check flowcharts. Additionally, it offers hints and explanations for common difficulties encountered in design calculations and significant changes in the new code compared to the original one. At the end of the book, there are also commonly used design reference materials. This book serves as a teaching reference for students majoring in civil engineering, road and bridge engineering, and river-crossing engineering, particularly for those specializing in road engineering, bridge engineering, and related fields. It is also available for engineering technicians engaged in engineering design to study and reference.
