| Abstract | This design example, concrete pier cap strengthening, involves the addition of external post-tensioning bars to a concrete pier cap. The bridge is to be strengthened to carry HL-93 design live load. The existing bridge was designed for H-15 live load, and the previous widening was designed for HS-15 live load. This example is based on AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, 7th Edition. |
