LIFT SYSTEM FOR RAISING CONTINUOUS CONCRETE BRIDGES

Due to road resurfacing a significant number of highway bridges throughout the nation violate underneath clearance requirements. A bridge lifting/monitoring system was developed as one solution to this problem. The system was designed to uniformly raise continuous 4-span/4-girder reinforced concrete deck/girder bridges. Detailed descriptions of the lift system components along with the systems capabilities, and lift procedure are presented.
