Design of Prestressed UHPFRC Girder Bridges According to Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code
There is an urgent need to develop a procedure for the design of ultra high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) bridges according to the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code and using the available standard Canadian Prestressed Concrete Institute precast/prestressed I‐girder sections. An iterative analysis and design procedure was proposed for concrete slab on precast/prestressed UHPFRC girders and a preliminary evaluation of the structural performance of this type of bridge and comparison to typical ordinary concrete (OC) bridges was carried out. The objectives of this chapter are twofold: (i) propose a simplified design approach for slab on ultra high performance concrete UHPFRC girder bridges; and (ii) compare its structural efficiency to a conventional concrete slab on OC girder bridges.
