Abstract "The design procedure presented considers both strength and serviceability criteria. The procedure involves designing a bridge assuming no settlement will take place, using the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials working stress design procedure with the allowable stresses being reduced to compensate for anticipated settlements. The resulting design is checked for compliance with serviceability criteria based on limiting longitudinal angular distortion, horizontal movement of abutments, deck cracking, and bridge vibrations"--Tech. report doc. page.
