I-girder and box shaped members are covered. Bracing for other types of bridges, such as truss, arch or towers is not specifically addressed; however much of the information included in this volume may be applicable. Bracing systems serve a number of important roles in both straight and horizontally curved bridges. The braces provide stability ...

Torsional brace strength requirements for steel I-girders. Yangqing Liu1, Matthew C. Reichenbach2, Todd A. Helwig3. Abstract. Torsional bracing is often used to stabilize beams in building and bridge applications. The bracing improves the stability by restraining twist of the cross section.
Reducing the number and complexity of cross-frames can have a significant impact on the speed of fabrication, speed of erection, and overall bridge cost. Lean-on bracing represents a way to do just that and potentially eliminate 50% or more of the full cross-frames required for a routine steel I-girder bridge without adding any cost to the girders.
