Abstract
Provides a worked example for the design of a single span fully integral bridge, that utilises High Modulus Pile Abutments and a composite plate girder deck. Calculations are provided for each design stage, together with detailed notes explaining the background to the methods employed and the parameters chosen. A design is proposed for a reinforced capping beam to provide a full moment connection between the high modulus piles and the deck. Information is based on the findings of studies undertaken on steel integral bridges and steel substructures by the SCI since 1993.
