Abstract

Coastal bridges in hurricane-prone zones can suffer from forces due to the combined action of storm surges and water waves. The wave loads acting on coastal bridges with box girders are experimentally investigated using focused and regular waves, which induce different wave forces, especially for long waves. Visual observations show that air bubbles and overtopping water influence the wave forces during regular wave action.
