Placement of AASHTO Type 6 Modified Bridge Girders
Publication: Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction
Volume 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The Arizona Department of Transportation SR 101 Pima Freeway project included construction of the bridge discussed in this case study. This particular bridge is a mainline span over Tatum Boulevard. The aspects of construction discussed here encompass a description of AASHTO Type 6 Modified prestressed girders, the planning process for setting the 19 girders, and transport and placement of the girders. Thorough planning and control are required every time a crane lifts a load. In the case of a critical lift, planning must be done with great care, and lift control must be extremely tight.
