A bridge is a structure that spans horizontally between supports, whose function is to carry vertical loads. Generally speaking, bridges can be divided into two

Frame bridges are often the most economical solution for smaller spans. Orthogonal and trapezoidal frames are particularly suitable for grade separations (flyovers, underpasses – modest structures in

A rigid-frame bridge is a bridge in which the superstructure and substructure are rigidly connected to act as a continuous unit. Typically, the structure is cast monolithically, making the structure continuous
