Curved, spliced precast concrete U-Beam bridges require component design of various details. Course three content is developed to illustrate possible details for U-Beam bridges based on past plant-fabricated girders, and to provide understanding of the engineering principles for each critical element. Course attendance will enable participants to understand fundamental concepts (precast & post-tensioned) related to the design and engineering of various design details of curved, spliced precast concrete U-Beam bridges.

After completing this course, the student will be able to understand fundamental concepts related to the design and engineering of various design details of curved spliced precast concrete U-Beam bridges.
