A comprehensive guide to the engineering of bridge supports. The text details the functional requirements and classification of bearings, which facilitate movement and load transfer between the bridge's upper and lower sections. It further examines pier and column design, emphasizing the selection of structural types based on environmental factors like water flow or urban space constraints. The authors provide specific design criteria for resisting diverse forces, including seismic activity, the
