This is where the "work" in bridge engineering gets heavy.
When dealing with cable-stayed, suspension, extra-dosed, or highly curved segmental bridges, holds a distinct advantage.
After analysis, the real work begins: code compliance.
CSI Bridge grew out of SAP2000, but evolved into a dedicated bridge solution. Its core philosophy is —you work with bridge objects (decks, piers, abutments, bearings) rather than individual nodes and elements. The software automatically generates the finite element mesh behind the scenes.
While it features powerful wizards for standard bridge types (such as PSC box girders, cable-stayed bridges, and suspension bridges), the underlying environment gives the user direct control over individual nodes, plates, and solid elements.
