HI Elliott, I’ve designed a pair of bridges that help create a new roundabout near Coventry. They are both have steel beams connected to a concrete deck. The foundations are slightly unusual in that they are rigidly connected to the deck. Bridge traditionally have ‘bearings’ between the deck and abutments/foundations but if you connect them as I did less maintenance is required (no bearings to replace). You can see the bridges on Google Maps here: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.3785552,-1.4671176,3a,90y,112.82h,105.16t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sbFBk0vHK1kW7sbKrD12LGw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192
