Concrete Bridge Design and Construction. No. 3: Prestressing for concrete bridges
The Structural Engineer, 2014This article from the Concrete Bridge Development Group's technical committee examines the prestressing for a concrete bridge. In concrete bridges, for deck spans more than 20-30m, prestressing should generally be used. As described in last month's article, prestressing enhances the capacity of a member that is weak in tension, but strong in ...
