The standard also encompasses the structural design of bridge foundations [4] as well as the design and requirements of bridge bearings for both ordinary and moving bridges. [6] [7] In 2010, BS 5400 was superseded by the Structural Eurocodes for the design of new bridges. However, BS 5400 still serves as the foundation for assessment standards ...

Asked for further details about the time, equipment and the number of crew members it would take to use one bridge for both directions of traffic, WSDOT spokesperson Doug Adamson said via email ...
Multiple players and staff members were reportedly wondering why no timeout was called. It clearly wasn't just another loss for the 4-8 team. “Guys were furious,” a staff member said. “It ...
