• Abstract:
  When a bridge engineer encounters a design or analysis problem concerning a bridge substructure, that structure will commonly have a mixture of member types, some slender, and some squat. Slender members are generally governed by flexure, and normal beam theory should suffice for analysis and design. Squat members can often be handled by beam theory too, although nowadays designers have a choice and may opt to use strut-and-tie (SAT) models.
