• Abstract:
  This report summarizes the research conducted during the past year as specified in the Center for Transportation Research Project 7-2941, "Long-Term Behavior of High Performance Concrete Bridges." In addition to the ongoing monitoring of sites at the Louetta Road Overpass on State Highway 249 in Houston, TX, and the North Concho River/US 87/South Orient Railroad (S.O.R.R.) Overpass on US 67 in San Angelo, TX, several new HPC bridges were examined for inclusion in this study. These additional sites will serve as monitoring points to build a HPC bridge database in which the behavior can be catalogued for study and comparison. It is the intent of this project to establish and maintain a database of HPC bridge sites throughout the state so the specific long-term effects of various HPC mix designs and strategies can be evaluated and improved.
