ACI 345R 2011 Edition, September 1, 2011 Guide for Concrete Highway Bridge Deck Construction
More info
Description / Abstract:
This guide presents considerations to take in the design and a
summary of construction practices for conventionally reinforced
concrete highway bridge decks. Such decks are typically supported
by multiple simple- or continuous-span steel or prestressed
concrete girders, or integral reinforced concrete members. The
service-life performance of concrete bridge decks, including
maintenance, repair, and rehabilitation needs, is directly related
to the care exercised from preconstruction through the
post-construction period. Recommendations are presented for design
and durability considerations, concrete materials, reinforcement,
placing, finishing and curing, and the use of overlays.
Although some performance and durability factors discussed may be applicable, design and construction of prestressed bridge decks are presently beyond the scope of this guide. Thus, prestressing steel is not included in the reinforcement section. Guidance for the design of prestressed bridge decks is being developed elsewhere (Swartz and Schokker 2008).
