Hello I have received a special project that I need to complete and I've searched for various facts myself but I'm getting nowhere. When I was googling around, I found this page and saw that it was full of people who know a lot about this area.
What I need to know is:
Describe and explain how certain bridge materials work, such as T-beams and I-beams, when they are suitable and why.
Demonstrate practically how important the shape of a bridge is and explain why.
Describe and explain why different materials are used for different bridges.
How have bridge constructions changed? And why?
Mathematical explanation for, for example, I-beams and T-beams with simple formulas.
The design principle with a solid rod and a tube.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Anything from direct answers to just pointing out where I can find the information.
I truly hope someone can help me here!
Best regards, AntonL

The calculation principles for different beam types can be found in technology books or under machine knowledge. The actual calculation formulas should be in any standard collection of formulas. It was 14 years ago that I studied technology, but force calculations are fun.
Try to find a teacher in machine learning or construction and beg for some tips. The alternative is to try hunting down someone from the technical universities. The civil engineering folks there should be spot on.
The subject is really fun and very useful. Even if I don't calculate everything I build, you still know which solutions are better than others.

Entered the search terms "bro" & "material" & "konstruktion" and found many interesting links. www.sis.se has a bunch of books on the subject if you prefer that medium. I found several dissertation hits from both KTH, Chalmers, and other schools, e.g. http://epubl.luth.se/1402-1560/2002/005/LTU-YTH-EX-02005-SE.pdf
You have to pick a little here and a little there, but avoid copying. Getting good at searching is the key to all knowledge.
Try several different search engines and vary your search terms. Search only Swedish sites and try excluding everything related to teeth, etc.

thanks chris!! now I have almost completed the entire work, only the beam tasks left!chris47 said:Typed in the keywords "bridge" & "material" & "construction" and got many interesting links. www.sis.se has a lot of books that cover the subject if you prefer that medium.
