Abstract: |
The Second Stage Expressway System (SES) in Bangkok, Thailand includes approximately 32 km of elevated roadway. The precast segmental portion consisted of approximately 1,130 spans ranging in length from 24.9 m to 48.7 m, with a typical span length of 45 m. Because of the large investment involved, it was cost-effective to produce a prototype test span that could confirm the adequacy of the design. |
