The primary function of a bridge deck is to support the vehicular vertical loads and distribute these loads to the steel superstructure. This chapter provides practical information regarding the decking options and design considerations for steel bridges, presenting deck types such as concrete deck slabs,
During the past years, traffic load models adopted in codes of practice for designing bridge structures have noticeably evolved. In modern codes, static models adopted previously, representing physically existing heavy
