If you want more reference:

PCA Bridge Design Examples - For Concrete Bridge Question

FHWA- Steel Bridge Handbook -For Steel Bridge Question

 
for design part.......SEAOC design manuals (Vol 1 to 5) great manuals). But, you have to buy them....

I found that following one is free download and very nice one.






2009 NEHRP Recommended Seismic Provisions: Design ExamplesLink below.






https://www.fema.gov...documents/30946

If somebody has Hiner's CA Seismic Review work book, it would be great reference as well for seismic basic understanding and seismic analysis part.
