Abstract:

Side-by-side box-beam bridges are low-cost and easy to construct,

but it is difficult to inspect the interior beam webs, which can hide

potential defects such as cracking and other deterioration. A new

design reduces these problems and could double the service lives of the

bridges by optimizing the post-tensioning process and replacing steel

post-tensioning cables with stronger, corrosion-resistant carbon fiber

composite cables (CFCC).
