<p>A new class of spread slab beam bridges has recently been developed and implemented in Texas. The research questions addressed in this paper are: how long can such a low profile bridge system span in either a simply supported or continuous form? And, can construction operations be accelerated, by design? An effective way to extend the span length is to utilize post-tensioning and to make the bridge continuous over several spans. In order to explore the maximum span limit, the design of a multi-span prestressed concrete spread slab beam bridge is investigated. In addition, a thicker and longer precast prestressed concrete panels (PCPs) that uses concentric pre-tensioned prestress is developed to facilitate accelerated bridge construction by reducing the need for field placement of deck reinforcement. It is shown that the span length may be extended from 15 m to 21 m as a continuous shallow profile bridge. The new solution for PCPs is verified to speed up field operations as compared to the traditional deck with stay-in-place PCPs and cast-in-place toppings.</p>

Construction of Fozhao intercity bridge in Guangzhou was a three-span prestressed concrete continuous beam bridge. The bridge adopted triangle hanging basket cantilever pouring construction method. The bridge mixed cable-stayed spans, H form tower and typical highway bridge elements. It spaned across the exiting transport hubs center, with modern and ethereal shape, and became a new landmark of the city.

By analyzing the bridge structure in the course of the dead load and live load, taking into account different load safety factor for load combinations that will limit state as a result of the combination of two kinds of forces calculated tendon force estimates, estimate the various sections of the steel beam, in accordance with certain requirements of the steel beam is a good layout, construction and consider re-simulate prestress for the role of the second combination, the process of the construction and use of a cross-sectional strength checking, stress and deformation checking checking.

Based on a project of a 22+55+22m continuous composite box beam bridge made of prestressed Concrete, using influence matrix, Numerical Simulation and Iterative Algorithm, an adjusting method for suspender force of continuous beam arch combination bridge has been proposed. It uses Finite Element Numerical Model to calculate the influence matrix and Iterative Algorithm to calculate the suspender force. When rely on this project, the error could be under 0.05% through finite iterative algorithm. And the feasibility has been tested in the completed bridge. It turns out that the error of the measured suspender force of the completed bridge is smaller than that in the design.
