Abstract:
The most common type of composite deck bridge
comprises of RC continuous slab supported by steel plate
girders . In a composite deck bridge ,the individual
materials are used efficiently since concrete is strong in
compression and steel in tension . This type of deck bridge
facilitates speedy erection of prefabricated steel girders
and considerably reduces the cost of form work . The
saving in overall depth of the beams leads to saving in the
lengths of approaches in the case embankments

Advantages:
•High Effeciency
•Light Weight & Rapid Installation
•Zero Maintenance
•Highly resistant to earthquakes.
•As deck slabs are not thick and thus
easy to demolish and remove.

Recommended procedures for Simplified Inelastic Design of Steel
I-Girder Bridges J. Bridge Eng, 9(3), 230–242
By:Barth.k , Hartnagel ,Donalt W White, Michael G Barker
This paper presents summary recommendations pertaining to new
AASHTO procedures for simplified inelastic design of steel I girder
bridges , effective plastic moment predictions based on the outcome
equations are combined with the recent design method

Design of Transverse Joints In Composite Bridges with Precast
Decks Issue 1, pp 17-27
By:Chang- Su Shim PhD, Kyu-Yong Choi ,Sung-Pil Chang
This paper investigated about the 2 types of connection for precast deck bridge
systems , shear connection & transverse joints between precast panels . It is
necessary to apply longitudinal prestress to prevent crack and water leakage to
transverse joints, assuming full prestressing is proposed. The long term
behaviour of composite beam with precast deck is investigated through
experiments for 430 days. From investigations loss of compressive stress at
joints is high and it should be a major factor in determining the magnitude of
initial prestress

FRP-Balsa Composite Sandwich Bridge Deck with Complex Core
Assembly
The aim of this work was to investigate to what extent the
performance of a glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) sandwich
slab-bridge with a uniform high-density balsa core could be
improved in terms of structural efficiency and weight. The FRP arch
reduced the force in the upper face sheet in the mid-span region and thus
prevented compression failure of the latter, which led to a higher ultimate
load
