Continued Advancements in Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) for Foundations, Substructures and Other Geotechnical Features
The project objectives are to: (1) Revise and update comprehensive bridge design examples to reflect the most recent changes to Sections 3, 10 and 11 of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Standards; (2) Redevelop instructor led and web-based training for transportation engineers responsible for substructure and foundation design of bridges; and (3) Identify research needs for continued advancement, and improved reliability and cost effectiveness of load and resistance factor design (LRFD) methodologies for substructures and foundations.
