Abstract:This Manual contains information related to the analysis and design of cast-in-place concrete box girder bridges prestressed with post-tensioning tendons. The Manual is targeted at Federal, State and local transportation departments and private company personnel that may be involved in the analysis and design of this type of bridge. The Manual reviews features of the construction of cast-in-place concrete box girder bridges, material characteristics that impact design, fundamentals of prestressed concrete, and losses in prestressing force related to post-tensioned construction. Also presented in this Manual are approaches to the longitudinal and transverse analysis of the box girder superstructure. Both single-cell and multi-cell box girders are discussed. Design examples are presented in Appendices to this Manual. The document is part of the Federal Highway Administration’s national technology deployment program and may serve as a training manual.
