CONTINUITY IN PRETENSIONED I-BEAM BRIDGES

The experimental evaluation of the rotational restraint at the interior support of a two span continuous specimen built with Type I AASHTO beams with debonded strands and a composite concrete slab is presented. The test desribed in this paper is part of an ongoing research project to evaluate the performance of pretensioned bridge members with debonded strands.
