EVALUATION FINDINGS: THE SEGMENTAL CONCRETE CHANNEL BRIDGE SYSTEM

In 1994, the Highway Innovative Technology Evaluation Center (HITEC) undertook a technical evaluation of the JMI Channel Bridge, a precast segmental overpass bridge system intended for use in either bridge replacement projects or new construction. A technical evaluation plan was developed in June 1995, consisting of two components: (1) Technical analyses and evaluation of design attributes and performance history, with emphasis on the unique aspects of this technology; and (2) A full-scale demonstration of the technology. This report contains the findings of technical analyses and evaluation of the Channel Bridge.
