| Description | This chapter will discuss the major design issues of orthotropic steel-deck systems. Emphasis will be given to the design of the closed-rib system, which is practicably the only system selected for orthotropic steel deck by the engineers around the world. Examples of short spans to some of the world's long-span bridges utilizing trapezoidal ribs will be presented. The subject of fabrication detailing and fatigue resistant details necessary to prepare a set of contract bridge plans for construction is beyond the scope of this chapter. However, the basic issues of fatigue and detailing are presented. For more detailed discussion, the best references are four comprehensive books on orthotropic steel deck systems by Wolchuk [1], Troitsky [2], and the British Institution of Civil Engineers [3,4].
