Curved Integral Abutment Bridge Design

This project’s objective is to develop guidelines for the design of curved integral abutment bridges. These guidelines should address recommendations for span length, total bridge length and degree of curvature and skew, with modeling recommendations for design which are consistent with the current American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications.
