    (UMT.Lahore, 2021) MUHAMMAD SOHAIL; MUZAMMIL SHAHZAD; UMAR FAROOQ; ASAD IQBAL
    This project will undertake the analysis and design of stress ribbon bridge with CSI bridge software. A stress ribbon bridge is a tension structure, like simple suspension bridge. The stress ribbon design is exceptional. Not many individuals including bridge engineers know about this structure and less than 50 have been constructed around the world. The suspension cables are installed in the deck which follows a catenary curve between upholds. The simple span ribbon is stress in compression which provides stiffness to the structure. Such extensions are ordinarily produced using concrete built up by steel tensioning cables. The objective of this project is to understand the structural behavior of the different types of stress ribbon bridges, identify the parameters essential for the preliminary calculations, permissible limits and sizing of the deck segments, develop a model for a 100 feet long stress ribbon bridge in CSI Bridge Software and also understand the dynamic behavior of the stress ribbon bridge. This is primarily used for person on foot and cycling traffic. Stress ribbon bridges are extremely affordable, stylish and nearly support free design. They require negligible number of materials. At present investigations, on joining stress Ribbon Bridge with cables or arches, to assemble on reasonable stress Ribbon Bridge. It makes the investigation of provisions of these specific extensions as a significant one
