Abstract: | The three-span bridge, prestressed concrete box beam constructed by the balanced cantilever method, presents insufficiences in the longitudinal prestressing and in the transversal passive reinforcement. Mainly in the central span, this insufficiency was evidenced as peripheral cracking of the bottom slab around the continuous prestressing zone. The repair has consisted in adding longitudinal prestressing and in removing the cracked zone. |
