Evaluation of the Buchanan County IBRD Bridge on Victor Avenue over Prairie Creek
The Institute for Transportation at Iowa State University has released a report that evaluates one bridge’s durability after being constructed with geosynthetic-reinforced soil abutments, high-performance concrete with lightweight fine aggregates, and a cast-on-site concrete box-beam superstructure. In addition, this bridge was constructed without a traditional overhead crane so as to minimize traveling disruptions.
