Abstract
Bridges are designed and built for a long life-cycle. For motorway bridges concerning the assessment in view of sustainability no longer construction costs should be decisive. By using a bottom-up approach representative bridges are analyzed representing typical solutions of medium span highway bridges. Results of life-cycle cost analyses, life-cycle environmental analyses and calculations of external effects are shown and analyzed for three variants of motorway crossings.
