TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 725: Guidelines for Analysis Methods and Construction Engineering of Curved and Skewed Steel Girder Bridges offers guidance on the appropriate level of analysis needed to determine the constructability and constructed geometry of curved and skewed steel girder bridges.

When appropriate in lieu of a 3D analysis, the guidelines also introduce improvements to 1D and 2D analyses that require little additional computational costs.

Appendixes C to K for NCHRP Report 725 are availble only in electronic format. A listing of those Appendixes and links to them are below:

APPENDIX C—Evaluation of Analytical Methods for Construction Engineering of Curved and Skewed Steel Girder Bridges

APPENDIX D—Benchmark Problems

APPENDIX E—Executive Summaries of Study Bridges

APPENDIX F—Early Correspondence with Owners and Agencies

APPENDIX G—Owner/Agency Policies and Procedures

APPENDIX H—Design Criteria for New Bridge Designs

APPENDIX I—Extended Summaries of Study Bridges

APPENDIX J—Bridge Drawings

APPENDIX K—Organization of Electronic Data
