An upper structure for a bridge includes a coping placed on the top of a pier, and girders held by the coping, wherein the coping has girder holding grooves. The girders are installed continuously without using bridge bearings, thereby reducing the construction cost. The coping and the girders behave in an integrated state, thereby realizing improved structural efficiency. The girders are held by being fitted into the grooves, so the coping is not excessively exposed to the outside, thereby realizing a good appearance of the bridge. The girders and the coping are thy-joined together in a prestressed state using prestressed steel strands, so that the strength of the girders and the resistance to a negative bending moment can be increased. Further, the girders and the coping can be integrated with each other without being processed by site work, thereby realizing improved structural efficiency and reducing the construction period.
