Some key touch points:
✳️Camber is the slight upward curve built into a bridge during construction to counteract the natural downward bending that happens as weight is added.
✳️It's crucial to accurately calculate camber to ensure the bridge is structurally sound and functions properly. Construction stage analysis (CSA) is necessary to consider how the bridge will deflect as it's being built in stages.
✳️The type of camber applied depends on the construction method used (cast-in-situ concrete vs prefabricated segments).
