Speaker: Ted Zoli, National Bridge Chief Engineer, HNTB Corporation
"Advances in Bridge Design"
The lecture will discuss aspects of bridge design that are becoming increasingly more relevant in the United States. Minimizing materials, which is at the core of the way we teach and practice bridge design, is becoming less relevant. Fabrication, transportation, and erection dominate the costs of modern bridges, and offer new opportunities for innovation. Further given these new sets of constraints there is great potential to create much safer, more robust, structural systems than before. These ideas are explored through a number of bridge projects throughout the United States.
