Development of Reference Criteria for Electrically Isolated Post-Tensioning Tendons in U.S. Bridge Applications

This Technical Brief provides an overview of “Advancing Steel and Concrete Bridge Technology to Improve Infrastructure Performance Program.” The objective was to research design details of Electrically Isolated Tendon (EIT) technology for post-tensioning systems in concrete bridges to accommodate epoxy-coated mild steel reinforcement and permit post-grouting inspection of anchorages, as are common to U.S. practice.
