Abstrait: |
Structural engineers should develop new concepts for reliable structures taking into consideration sensitivity to sustainability and aesthetics as social requirements. New ideas, as part of a creative process, is a social responsibility for structural engineers. Innovative structural designs seek to answer to new challenges from architectural developments, plastic arts, and social needs. Some “old ideas with a new twist” for new trends in bridge design are discussed. New materials (like HSS), new architecture challenges and new geometrical shapes (at structure or at cross section levels) are highlighted. Design and structural analysis issues, imposed by what may be considered as innovations, are discussed towards future social needs. |
