Abstract:Since 2008, MDOT has been using accelerated bridge construction, which utilizes prefabricated components and structural placements, to minimize traffic disruptions during bridge replacement or rehabilitation. A recent project provided MDOT with a new software tool to help determine when it is most effective to use accelerated methods. The project also provided information about the performance of bridges using prefabricated components and guidance on the best methods and materials for constructing them.
