Inverted-T bent caps have been widely used in Texas to reduce the overall elevation of bridges, to improve the available clearance beneath the beams, and to improve aesthetics. Since bridge design criteria have been improved and modified over the decades, many of the early inverted-T bent caps are deficient when evaluated against the current design
