Abstract:
The Texas Department of Transportation uses

precast prestressed concrete slab beam bridges for

shorter-span bridges of approximately 30–50 ft in

length. Conventional slab beam bridges have slab

beams placed immediately adjacent to one another

with a cast-in-place (CIP) topping slab. While these

bridges are used extensively, they are more

expensive than traditional prestressed I-beam

structures on a per-square-foot basis. This project

investigated the use of slab beams that are spread

apart with precast concrete panel (PCP) stay-in-place

forms between beams and a CIP concrete deck.

Design guidelines have been developed for this

alternate spread slab beam bridge system.
