Abstract

The design of bridges, in particular long spanned ones, is challenging in the sense that there are many complicated issues to be considered. Amidst the loads to be considered, like dead load, live load, wind load, and earthquake load, the wind load becomes the prime concern for the design of the bridges. The paper will introduce several newly evolved kinds of girder that were based on commonly known physic natural law by structural engineer. Further structural analysis and wind effect research should be done in the future to validate and decide the structural member dimensions. The main problem to be solved in strait crossing bridge is lateral wind load that will effect traffic safety as well as wind effect on structures (statically and dynamically) for long span bridge arrangement.
