Abstract
The collapses of beam bridges occur at the substructure more frequently than the superstructure. One of the causes of these phenomena is the difference of the design processes of super- and substructure. In this report, at first the author examines the present design processes, and then proposes a design method which is based on the conditions that collapses of super- and substructure occur at the same time.
