Pedestrian Concrete Timber Bridge 2AbstractThere has been a renewed eagerness on the utilization of the timber concrete in the bridges in a recent couple of years because of their ecological friendliness and logical cost. This journal paper will review the long-term performance of the pedestrian concrete timber bridge structure. The aim of the study is to investigate the major problems faced when using the materials in the timber composite concrete bridges to sustain and enhance the structure’s lifetime. The primary fundamental in the designing a pedestrian concrete timber bridge structure is taking into the account their long-term performance. Many brides have been assessed because of their uniqueness and long-term performance and most of the issues came out of TCC. It is important to study and analyze the problems facingpedestrian bridges composed of the timber and the concrete slabs and summarize them using the Eurocode for the timber and concrete. Besides the research on the long-term effects, there is needof predicting and comparing the provisions with some projects and design a recommendation for the designing the results. This will ensure the improved performance of the timber composite concrete bridge.

Pedestrian Concrete Timber Bridge 4INTRODUCTIONHistorically, individuals used to construct their bridges by the use of stones and timber. Nevertheless, there have been developments and improvements in every level and different materials which can improve the resilience of the bridge and other types of construction have been discovered. The use of the concrete and steel has replaced all the materials that were used previously due to the disadvantages of the traditional materials used in the construction. This matter encouraged the growth of the responses that limit the weak point on timber and take the benefits of the long-lasting constituents of it. After that, the structures of timber-concrete composite used on the bridges will display an exceptional ability. This method combines the force in the compression of concrete with the strength of timber in tension which network by making a sufficient connection between the materials. This means that both strength and stiffnessof the wood and concrete when combined gives substantial benefits that make the bridge made ofthose materials to last longer.The density of the timber-concrete composite is light compared to another composite system since the structure can carry a load three times compared to using timber alone, and more than six times the rigidity of flex. The use of the reinforced systems of concrete has led to low efficiency on the capability of carrying the load and it’s self-weight. As soon as the viable of the motion of the composite completed, the reduction of the sizable deformation and development ofthe potential of conveying load could be expected in the timber structure assessment. The timber concrete structures are considered to be a good substitute for the constructions of the existing usage in the building of the bridge and their intersection. Many people are now using more of their resources in the building work specifically in the industrial sector, and a greater percentage of it goes to the solid wasted. The organizations
