Bridge Design: Transverse Load Distribution

This lecture covers the design of bridge sections to withstand transverse loads, including eccentric vertical load recovery, symmetrical and antimetric loads, and the use of spacers. The instructor explains the modeling of box aprons with spacers, the introduction of forces through spacers, and different types of transverse supports. The lecture also discusses the design of box foundations, lateral supports, and different types of spacers like lattice spacers in curved bridges.
