In recent years, bridge engineers and researchers are increasingly turning to the finite element method for the design of Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges. However, the complexity of the method has made the transition slow. Based on twenty years of experience, Finite Element Analysis and Design of Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges provides structural engineers and researchers with detailed modeling techniques for creating robust design models. The book's seven chapters begin with an overview of the various forms of modern steel and steel-concrete composite bridges as well as current design codes. This is followed by self-contained chapters concerning: nonlinear material behavior of the bridge components, applied loads and stability of steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, and design of steel and steel-concrete composite bridge components.

Dr. Ehab Ellobody is Professor of Steel Bridges and Structures at Tanta University in Egypt. He attained his PhD from the University of Leeds, UK in 2002 in the field of composite structures. Following his PhD, he joined different research groups at Tanta University, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, The University of Hong Kong, The University of Manchester, and Sohan University. Professor Ellobody has published over 85 international journal articles and conference papers in different fields. He has two international books published by Elsevier. His deanship role from 2014 to 2020 at Sohar University, Oman, has resulted in Engineers Australia accreditation of undergraduate Engineering programs.
