Exploration of Design Principles and Optimization Strategies of Small Bridges and Culverts in Mountainous Area Highways
In recent years,economic development has promoted the construction of highways,especially in mountainous areas.Although these highways are always under construction,due to the geographical limitations,small bridges and culverts have become the main construction objects.Design is a key part of highway construction,which directly affects the safe operation of highways.This paper aims to discuss the design principles and optimization schemes of small bridges and culverts in mountainous area highways,and to analyze their importance and design significance.In addition,some suggestions will be put forward in this paper to provide a reference for the future construction of small bridges and culverts in mountainous area highways.
