ARCH Bridge Design 2

[Mudadi]

I need to perform an analysis on an existing concrete arch bridge. It's a cast in-place concete arch. I cannot find any resources on bridge arch design.
Anything will help

Any decent structural design handbook will do. Try Gaylord and Gaylord. That is usually a great reference.

Thanks Minorchord2000. i will check out that reference. All the structural handbooks I have, have nothing on cast-in-place arch bridge design

I have a copy of "Elastic Arches" by Conde McCullough, which I scanned to CD - in his time he was the D.B. Steinmann of concrete arches.

The management here doesn't like anyone posting e-mail addresses, so I wouldn't be able to mail it to you. If some one knows of a site where I can upload it, I'd be very happy to.
