    Description

    In this class, we’ll learn how differing bridge analysis methods produce different results affecting the overall design and ultimately cost. We’ll then prove this by modeling a bridge structure in InfraWorks software, and then we’ll analyze the structure and design the girders using the internal analytical tools. We’ll then connect to Structural Bridge Design software to create and use a refined analysis model to show the differences, efficiencies, and savings that are possible.

    Key Learnings

    • Discover when refined analysis methods are useful
    • Learn how to produce refined analysis models with the use of InfraWorks and Structural Bridge Design
    • Learn how to quickly model bridge structures in InfraWorks
    • Learn about the efficiencies possible by considering different analysis methodologies
