ASCE Bridge Design Specifications

The ASCE Bridge Design Specifications are guidelines created by the American Society of Civil Engineers that outline the principles and standards for designing bridges in the United States. They ensure that bridges are safe, durable, and meet the necessary engineering requirements for load, stress, and environmental factors. These specifications cover various aspects, including materials, construction methods, and maintenance practices, to help engineers create structures that can withstand traffic, weather, and time. By following these standards, engineers aim to provide reliable infrastructure that supports public safety and mobility.
