Performance of Concrete Bridges Reinforced with High-Strength Steel
The report covers continued field measurements of two experimental bridges constructed with high-strength reinforcing. One is a three simple-girder span structure, the other is a four span continuous structure. The measurements are now restricted to dead-load deflections and detection of cracks in the deck of the bridges. It is concluded that the Yu and Winter design method of predicting long-term dead-load deflections is satisfactory for simple span structures. However, a more sophisticated method is apparently necessary for continuous structures. Long term affects of drying shrinkage are a major design consideration for the latter bridges.
