Piers and soil under blasted arch bridges
Destruction of arch at one side of pier changes static conditions completely since lateral thrust of arch at other side is borne in full strength by pier and its foundation; because of heavy weight of arch bridges, foundations cover wide area and increase in pressure on foundation base is negligible; examples of different types of destroyed arch bridges.
