Concrete bridge

[1][2][3] From the late 18th century cast iron framed bridges may have had an unreinforced cast concrete deck, or had their structure encased in concrete, for example the Homersfield Bridge, constructed between 1869 and 1870, between the English counties of Suffolk and Norfolk.

[4] In 1873, Frenchman Joseph Monier obtained a French patent for a method of iron-wire reinforced concrete bridge construction;[5] his first iron-wire reinforced concrete bridge was constructed across the moat of the marquis de Tillièrein's fr:Château de Chazelet, in 1875.

All barrel sections were reinforced similarly, regardless of the forces acting on it.

[8] The US's longest unreinforced concrete span, is the 200 feet (61 m) arch of the, 1910, Rocky River Bridge in Cleveland, Ohio.
