High-Performance/High-Strength Lightweight Concrete for Bridge Girders and Decks
This report presents proposed changes to the AASHTO LRFD bridge design and construction specifications to address the use of lightweight concrete in bridge girders and decks. These modified specifications will provide highway agencies with the information necessary to develop comparable designs of lightweight and normal weight concrete bridge elements for use in evaluating alternatives and selecting the alternative that will yield economic benefits. The material contained in the report should be of immediate interest to state bridge engineers and others involved in the design and construction of concrete bridges.
