Abstract:

In the latest State of the Union address, President Obama reported to the American public on the status of our national infrastructure: over 25 percent of the Nation's 600,000 bridges are considered "structurally deficient" or "functionally obsolete." In other words, these critical links to public safety, economic vibrancy, and quality of life are in need of replacement or repair. However, a wide array of structure types, material characteristics, ages, daily traffic volumes, and climate conditions makes bridge replacement increasingly difficult. To combat these issues, a number of new methods have emerged to expedite bridge construction. Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) technologies are one of the top priorities of the Every Day Counts 2 (EDC2) initiative —a Federal Highway Administration program that encourages keeping infrastructure in a constant "state of good repair" through effective management and innovative technologies.
