Nowadays, the scope of bridge construction projects in China is becoming wider, which promotes China’s economic development to a large extent and also improves China’s transportation system. Meanwhile, people also put forward new requirements for the quality of steel structure bridges. However, in actual design, due to the influence of many factors, some problems are inevitable, which will affect the integrity of the design. Therefore, the designer needs to fully grasp the possible design problems, and then take effective measures to improve the integrity of the design scheme, so as to ensure the quality of the steel structure bridge and improves the safety of the steel structure bridge from the fundamentals. This paper mainly focuses on steel structure bridges, analyzed the current status of steel structure bridge types and their selection, and proposes the integrity design strategy of steel structure bridges.
