  • Rapid Construction Details for Bridges in Seismic Zones
    RAPID CONSTRUCTION DETAILS FOR BRIDGES IN SEISMIC ZONES. John Stanton 1, Marc Eberhard 1 and Kyle Steuck 2 ABSTRACT Rapid construction of bridges is desirable to counteract the costs caused by traffic congestion, exposure of workers to risk of accidents, and environmental damage. Use of precast concrete components offers an opportunity to reduce the duration of site operations, but poses potential problems when used in seismic regions because of the difficulty in designing connections that can accommodate the forces and inelastic deformations induced by earthquake ground motions. This paper presents options for selecting precast concrete bridge bent systems and associated connections that are suitable for use in seismic regions. Some use technology that is already proven and may be implemented now, while others are based on rational principles but may require proof testing prior to construction. The paper outlines the testing program that is being undertaken for one of those systems. Introduction Construction activities have always had negative impacts on the operation of transportation systems. Examples are traffic congestion, worker safety and environmental damage. In recent years, those effects have become increasingly critical, so various agencies have worked to develop systems that reduce those impacts, and in particular they have sought ways to achieve rapid construction. For example, FHWA (2004) provides general information on the development and implementation of accelerated construction methods. Precast concrete bridge components offer an alternative to conventional reinforced, cast- in-place concrete components that has the potential to address some of the problems. Precasting can facilitate rapid construction, minimize traffic disruption, improve work zone safety, reduce environmental impacts, improve constructability, and lower life-cycle costs.

  • Precast Prestressed Concrete Structure Provides Solution For

To solve the problem of transporting visitors Senior Project Manager from an underground parking structure up a A. T. Curd Constructors Glendale, California steep hillside to the new J. Paul Getty Museum (near Los Angeles, California), a people-mover system was devised. The design and construction of the guide way structure supporting this people-mover system posed several unique challenges to the designers and builders of the project. The answers to these challenges came in the innovative use of precast/prestressed concrete components combined with Wilfred L. Painter, Jr. post-tensioning. This article presents the P. E. design features, precast concrete fabrication, Senior Vice President and construction highlights of the project. Precast Operations A. T. Curd Constructors Glendale, California The Niobrara River Company recast and prestressed concrete played a prominent Rialto, California role in the design-construction of a 1080 m (3535 ft) p long, curved, U-shaped tram guideway near the city of Los Angeles, California. This guideway structure sup ports a people-mover system, which rapidly transports visi tors from an underground parking structure next to the San Diego Freeway to the main plaza outside the new I.
