About this Event
Join us for a technical presentation that introduces bridge engineering design practice in Canada, tailored for civil and structural engineering students and junior engineers, while remaining engaging for practicing professionals.
The presentation will outline the fundamental principles that guide bridge design. Topics include common bridge types used across Canada, typical loading and limit states, relevant design codes and standards, and the key roles and responsibilities of bridge engineers throughout a project’s lifecycle.
The session will also feature real‑world examples illustrating design challenges encountered in both new bridge construction and rehabilitation projects. Particular attention will be given to staged construction, constructability considerations, and the practical constraints of working under traffic, environmental, and durability requirements. A recent bridge rehabilitation case study will demonstrate how theoretical design concepts inform engineering decisions in practice.
