Bridge Design Workflow

Bridge Design Workflow

Course modified date: 27 June 2026

This course presents the complete SOFiSTiK workflow for bridge design projects using SSD and SOFiPLUS. Participants learn how to create a project, define materials, cross sections and prestressing systems, generate bridge geometry, apply actions and loads, perform linear analysis, evaluate traffic loads, manage construction stages and create design combinations.

The course explains modelling principles based on bridge axes, tendon definition, load management and mesh generation. It also covers design preparation, reporting and project archiving.

The workflow provides a structured foundation for reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete and composite bridge projects following Eurocode requirements.
