Abstract

Stone and brick masonry bridges represent a significant portion of existing in-service bridges in Europe. A thorough understanding of their design and construction is essential to appropriately assessing, maintaining, rehabilitating and preserving these valuable structures. Unfortunately, relevant literature is fragmented and incomplete, leaving masonry bridges orphaned of doctrine and of treatment in modern codes. Based on a comprehensive review of some European treatises, especially Spanish and French ones, published in the 16th through the 19th centuries, this paper begins to mend the knowledge gap by summarizing the geometrical bridge configuration and the materials employed in their construction. Moreover, the initial steps of the design are illustrated, as an introduction for the second part of this two-part publication, relating to the construction process of masonry bridges.
欧洲论著中石砌桥的设计:第1部分-几何结构
石料和砖砌体桥梁在欧洲现有的在役桥梁中占很大一部分。全面了解这些建筑的设计和建造,对于适当地评估、维护、修复和保护这些珍贵的建筑至关重要。不幸的是,相关文献是碎片化和不完整的,留下砖石桥孤儿的理论和处理在现代规范。本文在全面回顾了16世纪至19世纪发表的一些欧洲论文,特别是西班牙和法国的论文的基础上,通过总结桥梁的几何形状和建造中使用的材料,开始弥补知识空白。此外,还说明了设计的初始步骤,作为本两部分出版物的第二部分的介绍,涉及砌体桥梁的施工过程。
