Anchorage System Contribution to Post‐Tensioned Bridge Collapse
Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.This paper presents an experimental investigation of a 1960s precast post‐tensioned girder bridge in Trstena, Slovakia, revealing severe corrosion and anchorage degradation that ultimately led to its collapse. The findings highlight critical vulnerabilities in obsolete anchorage systems and emphasize the need for proactive assessment and maintenance of
