ECONOMIC AND PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS FOR SHORT-SPAN BRIDGE REPLACEMENT STRUCTURES

Bridges with span lengths up to 100 ft. often can be replaced with many different types of structures. This paper is based on a study covering economic and performance aspects of 3,692 bridge replacements in Minnesota during the period 1973 to 1983. Initial and subsequent costs as well as performance problems and considerations for different types of concrete, steel, and timber structures are discussed.
