Abstract:
THIS REPORT COVERS PART "H" (COMPARATIVE COSTS OF DIFFERENT TYPES FOR 25, 50, 75, AND 100 FT SPANS) OF THE GENERAL OUTLINE OF ALL FACTORS RELATING TO THE DESIGN OF ABUTMENTS FOR SMALL HIGHWAY BRIDGES. COMPARATIVE DESIGNS AND ESTIMATES OF COSTS FOR SEVERAL OF THE ABUTMENT TYPES PREVIOUSLY DESCRIBED AND TABULAR DATA ARE GIVEN AS A GUIDE TOWARDS ECONOMY OF TYPE. BRIDGE REACTIONS FOR TWO AND THREE LANE BRIDGES OF 25, 50, 75, AND 100 FT SPANS ARE IMPOSED ON EACH TYPE OF ABUTMENT TO SHOW THE VARIATION IN DESIGN AND COST WITH DIFFERENT BRIDGE SIZES. /AUTHOR/
