Analysis of deployable bridge

The rapid development of infrastructure leads to a wide variety of structural designs, and one of the upcoming techniques is deployable structure. A deployable structure is a structure that can change shape to significantly change size. Deployable structures have many potential applications ranging from emergency shelters and facilities, through relocatable, semi–permanent structures, to space station components. Their main advantages are their small volume during storage and transportation and their fast, easy erection procedure. The motivation behind doing this project is because of its adaptability to the environment and the easiest mode of construction. This project work is done using SOLIDWORKS Software, an application that can be used for structural analysis and designing of the pedestrian deployable bridge. The main aim of this project is to determine the strength of the deployable bridge and to reduce the loss of lives by providing safe transportation that is the designing of deployable evacuation bridge. The problems thus exist so far are that the structure is costly in parts and assembling, and friction in the joints determines the life of the structure.
