Material hybrid bridges

Definition: material hybrid bridge

A material hybrid bridge is a type of bridge where the longitudinal or primary system switches from a cross-section made of one material to a cross-section made up of another material along its longitudinal axis. For example for a girder bridge, the superstructure is made up of a concrete section from the supports to the quarter span points but made up of steel in between. The connection between these different parts is continuous.
