Bridges form a vital part of local and world transport favoring world trade and economics via Globalization. However, with changing trends, more and more advances have come up pertaining to bridge design for an enhanced performance and improved aesthetics. For an environmental condition favoring more than one system of construction of bridges, it sometimes becomes difficult to start to plan and design a particular type of bridge before analyzing the alternatives. Hence, through our project we provide a background for analysis between two chosen types, that is, Prestressed Concrete Bridges & Plate Girder Bridges. Both the bridges will be designed on MIDAS software, the latest technological advancement in the bridge design till date. Based on the design, further steps if planning, drawing preparations & estimation can be done. This thereby saves huge portion of finance and increases prospectus of salability based on firm decisions of the type of construction. Through this paper, we aim at providing a critical review of the works and researches done in this as well as the related domains.

Bridges, Pre-Stressed Concrete, Plate Girder, MIDAS
