Professor Homayoun Abrishami, Ph. D. , P. Eng. was the supervisor of this report. The title of this report is “Design of Reinforced Concrete Bridges”. The report is divided into two parts: Part A and Part B. Part A, presents a complete qualitative description of the typical prestressed or reinforced concrete bridge design process. Part B provides an actual quantitative detailed design. The design is intended to be a replacement for the De La Concorde Overpass that collapsed in 2006. The replacement bridge is designed in 3 design codes: Current Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code, CSA S6-14 rev. 17; Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code of 1966, CSA S6-66; and American Bridge Design Specifications, AASHTO LRFD 2014-17.  \nThe first chapter after the introduction of part A goes over three past bridge collapses and determines lessons learned from them. The following chapter focuses on different types of bridges as well as section types, geometric properties and materials used in bridge construction. In addition, for each bridge type discussed, some advantages and disadvantages are listed. Chapter 4 discusses three different bridge design codes: Current Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code, CSA S6-14 rev. 17; Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code of 1966, CSA S6-66; and American Bridge Design Specifications, AASHTO LRFD 2014-17. American equivalent of the current Canadian code is chosen to compare the current codes and the old code is chosen because De La Concorde Overpass was designed based on that code. Moreover, after discussing the codes, required designed inputs and several feasible conceptual designs are outlined. Then, software used in structural analysis are introduced with their main features.  \nLater on, different constructability issues together with potential site problems that will affect the integrity of the structure are examined. Lastly, plant life management and aging management programs are discussed and presented at the end of part A of the report.  \nPart B of this report proposes a replacement design structure in place of the De La Concorde Overpass that collapsed in 2006. The first section is the problem statement in which, there is all the information that was initially available to us. Using that information, we designed a bridge based on three codes given above. Firstly, live and dead loads are determined. Then, these loads are distributed and factored to be used in the design. After, girders are designed and later on the slab is designed. Finally, a concrete mix is proposed for a durable design. During the process, hand calculations as well as computer programs like EXCEL and MATLAB are frequently used. Two commercially available structural analysis software are also used but only for result verification purposes.  \nOverall Table of Contents  \nPart A: Design Principles  \nChapter 1: Introduction to Part A  \nChapter 2: Bridge Failures and Lessons Learned  \nChapter 3: Types of Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete Bridges  \nChapter 4: Design Criteria  \nChapter 5: Required Design Input  \nChapter 6: Conceptual Design  \nChapter 7: Structural Analysis  \nChapter 8: Detailed Design  \nChapter 9: Durability Design  \nChapter 10: Construction Issues  \nChapter 11: Plant Life Management Appendices  \nPart B: Design Calculations  \nChapter 1: Introduction to Part B  \nChapter 2: Project Statement  \nChapter 3: Influence Lines – Truck Load Analysis & Design Envelopes  \nChapter 4: Design Loads  \nChapter 5: Design of Interior Prestressed Concrete Girder  \nChapter 6: Reinforced Concrete Deck Design  \nChapter 7: Durability Design  \nAppendix: Design Drawings  \nChapter 1 – Introduction to Part A  \nPart A of this report highlights the overall design process of reinforced and prestressed concrete bridges.
