Abstract:The traveling public has lost patience with the extensive highway construction that is necessary today. As the U.S. interstate highway system approaches the end of its service life, urban congestion continues to grow. Bridge construction or rehabilitation can be a significant source of congestion because of its sequential nature: foundations for piers and abutments must be built first, then pier columns and caps must be built before beams and decks are placed. Offsite prefabrication technologies and processes help solve this problem.
