        abstract = {Substructure components like abutments and piers play a critical role in transferring loads from the superstructure (deck, girders, bearings) to the foundations and ultimately to the ground. Unlike the superstructure, substructures must manage not only vertical loads, but significant horizontal/lateral loads like earth pressures, wind, seismic, thermal movements, scour, while also providing durability, serviceability and allowing feasible construction. The design therefore must integrate structural, geotechnical, durability, and construction considerations.},
