This guidance book explains two numerical examples for the design of bridges with steel-concrete composite structure under the Eurocodes (a two-girder bridge with transverse cross-girders and an open box-girder bridge). All the main justifications are addressed with precise references to the new set of applied standards. Emphasis is placed on the differences or new features of these standards... This guidance book explains two numerical examples for the design of bridges with steel-concrete composite structure under the Eurocodes (a two-girder bridge with transverse cross-girders and an open box-girder bridge). All the main justifications are addressed with precise references to the new set of applied standards. Emphasis is placed on the differences or new features of these standards compared to the usual French practice. This document is intended to support the application of Eurocodes in European countries and particularly in France. It is intended especially for design engineers, design offices and contractors in charge of building steel-concrete composite bridges.
