ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE GUIDEWAY STRUCTURES

Transit structures carry frequent loads through urban areas. The guideway structure must support, guide and restrain the transit vehicle and may also be required to perform other tasks such as providing emergency access and egress, supporting wayside power distribution services and housing automatic train controls. These recommendations form a procedure for the design of reinforced and prestressed concrete guideway structures for public transit. Appropriate bridge and railroad design codes should be consulted for items not covered here. (Edited author abstract)
