The intention of fib Bulletin 32 is to present guidelines for the design of footbridges as well as bridges accommodating cyclists and bridleways (equestrian paths). The need for these guidelines comes from the fact that structural engineers designing footbridges currently have to spend considerable time and energy collecting information from numerous documents, codes and recommendations to make design decisions. There seems to be no international document dedicated solely to the design of footbridges. These guidelines attempt to provide a concentrated source of information regarding all design issues specific to footbridges. It is meant to be a 'liberal' document in the sense that it promotes new, innovative and bold yet prudent designs by sharing the experience of the authors, summarizing specifications given in codes, and presenting a collection of examples of well-designed structures or structural details from around the world. It is not intended to be an international code that specifies limits and admissible values, thus encouraging timid, conservative designs that are repetitions of approved and tested designs. Indeed, it may be the very fact that no international code exists specifically for footbridges that encourages the wide variety of footbridge designs found today. It should be noted that numerous guidelines, codes and books have been published on bridge design in general. Information given in those publications that is also applicable to footbridges is not repeated in Bulletin 32. The chapters of these guidelines all follow the same pattern: an introduction to the subject, general guidelines as well as do's and don'ts; a summary of information found in existing international codes, recommendations, experience of the authors, and built examples with comparison and comments on this information; examples. Plenty of illustrations and photographs help to visualize the themes of this work. The last chapter, 'Case Studies', contains footbridges each with a short summary of main structural data and references for further reading.

"These Guide Specifications address the design and construction of typical pedestrian bridges which are designed for, and intended to carry, primarily pedestrians, bicyclists, equestrian riders and light maintenance vehicles, but not designed and intended to carry typical highway traffic. Pedestrian bridges with cable supports or atypical structural systems are not specifically addressed. These Guide Specifications provide additional guidance on the design and construction of pedestrian bridges in supplement to that available in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications (AASHTO LRFD). Only those issues requiring additional or different treatment due to the nature of pedestrian bridges and their loadings are addressed. In Article 3 of this document, the load definitions and abbreviations are taken from AASHTO LRFD. Aluminum and wood structures are adequately covered in AASHTO LRFD, and as such are not specifically addressed herein. Implementation of the wind loading and fatigue loading provisions require reference to the AASHTO Standard Specifications for Structural Supports for Highway Signs, Luminaries and Traffic Signals (AASHTO Signs)."--Page 1.

Pedestrian bridges are urban infrastructures that are primarily used to segregate pedestrians from vehicular traffic. Many pedestrian bridges have been constructed in high-density cities such as Hong Kong, where they are essential to the daily lives of the urban population and have become a new form of everyday urban place accommodating various daily activities. People from diverse backgrounds use the pedestrian bridges as everyday places that meet their specific urban needs. The oldest pedestrian bridge in Hong Kong is Bowen Road Footbridge, constructed in 1942, and since then 1,214 pedestrian bridges have been completed, as of March 2015. Hong Kong is a bridge city, both physically and metaphorically. The bridges span different terrains and move large numbers of people. They accommodate diverse cultural and recreational activities, and/or commercial urban programs, rather than simply being segregation infrastructures for urban traffic crossing. Intuitively or intentionally, individuals consider and make pedestrian bridges their own places. This study investigates placemaking in high-density urban contexts by examining Hong Kong pedestrian bridges. The aims of the research are to (a) reveal and examine the mechanism of everyday placemaking in a high-density context, (b) develop a framework of necessity and sufficiency for placemaking, and (c) formulate the design and management strategies of everyday placemaking.

'Stress-ribbon bridges' is the term used to describe structures formed by a very slender concrete deck in the shape of a catenary. They can be designed with one or more spans and are characterized by successive and completementary smooth curves. These curves blend into the natural environment and their forms, the most simple and basic of structural solutions, clearly articulate the flow of internal forces which can be erected without undue pressure on the environment.
