1 AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Speciications Prestressed Concrete RICHARD A. MILLER, PhD, PE, FPCI PROFESSOR UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI AASHTO-LRFD Speciication, 4th Edition General This module covers prestressed concrete superstructure elements. Segmental boxes are NOT covered. Topics which are related to reinorced concrete only are covered in another module. Concrete structures are covered in Chapter 5. Chapter 5 uses a uniied approach reinorced concrete and prestressed concrete are covered in the same chapter. Loads and load combinations related to concrete are covered in Chapter 3. Analysis o concrete structures is covered in Chapter 4. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #2

2 General LRFD equations are in KSI units! Example Modulus o Rupture: r = ksi = 0.530ksi = psi = 530 psi r LRFD STD. SPEC. In most cases, the equations are simply the old Standard Speciications equations converted to ksi units psi 1000 psi / ksi 7.5 = ksi 7.5 5ksi = 1000 = ksi Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #3 5.4 Material Properties Materials must meet AASHTO LRFD Bridge Construction Speciications. Unless speciied otherwise, all provisions apply or strengths up to 10 ksi (Art ). Some provisions allow up to 15 ksi. There is an eort to extend all provisions to 18 ksi. I a provision does not allow higher strength, use a maximum o 10 ksi in the calculations. Decks must have a minimum strength o 4 ksi. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #4

3 5.4 Material Properties A current problem with the LRFD Speciications is that some provisions allow strengths up to 18 ksi, but many are limited to 15 ksi or the deault o 10 ksi. So what do you do i you are using a high strength concrete and a speciic provision does not allow that strength? Use the highest strength allowed by that provision. For example, assume a 15 ksi strength is speciied but a particular provision has not been veriied or that strength. For that particular provision, you must use a concrete strength o 10 ksi or your calculations (you may still use 15 ksi concrete in the structure, you just cannot take advantage o the additional strength or that particular provision). However, i other provisions allow the use o 15 ksi concrete, you can use 15 ksi or those provisions. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #5 5.4 Material Properties Shrinkage and Creep For calculation o creep and shrinkage, the engineer may use: Articles and CEB-FIP Model Code ACI 209 For prestressed concrete the loss equations include creep and shrinkage. The main use o these provisions or prestressed concrete is or calculating restraint moments or continuous or live load bridges. These are veriied to 15 ksi. The creep equations do not work or strengths over 15 ksi. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #6

5 5.4 Material Properties Modulus o Rupture There are now 3 deined Moduli o Rupture or normal weight concrete: For Arts (crack control) and (I e ): 0.24 c ksi (= 7.5 c in psi units) For Art (minimum reinorcement): 0.37 c ksi (= 11.5 c in psi units) For Art (shear) (this is new in 2007): 0.20 c ksi (= 6 c in psi units) Note that the value or Article (shear) ONLY applies to the new, simpliied method.

Service III: Used or longitudinal tension in prestressed concrete girders. Service IV: Used or tension in prestressed columns, or crack control. Strength I: Basic load combination. Fatigue : Fatigue o reinorcement does NOT need to be checked or ully prestressed components designed using Service III (Art ) Strength II-V and Extreme Event I and II are checked as warranted.

8 3.4 - Loads and Load Factors 3.4.1: Load Factors and Load Combinations Service III applies only to LONGITUDINAL TENSION in prestressed girders. The modiier to (LL+IM) is 0.8. The modiier is < 1 because it was ound that the tensile capacity o prestressed girders is underestimated. This is largely because the loss o prestressing orce is usually overestimated and a lower bound is used or the tensile strength (modulus o rupture).

15 Distribution Factors or Precast/Prestressed Concrete Elements Distribution Factor Method or Moment and Shear Adjacent Box Girders Adjacent box girders with shear keys and a cast-in-place overlay are Type sections. Adjacent box girders with shear keys, but no cast-inplace deck, are Type g sections. Type g sections may or may not be laterally post-tensioned. Lack o lateral post-tensioning causes a reduction o the distribution actor. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #29 Distribution Factors or Precast/Prestressed Concrete Elements Distribution Factor Method or Moment and Shear Interior Box Girders The ollowing distribution actors may be used or a Type (composite deck) or a Type g (non-composite) bridge IF the girders are suiciently connected together meaning they achieve transverse lexural continuity. This can be done with lateral post-tensioning o at least 250 psi (Commentary ; paragraph 12). The Commentary urther states that bridges without a structural t overlay and which h use untensioned transverse rods should NOT be considered as suicient to achieve transverse lexural continuity, unless demonstrated by testing or experience (Commentary , paragraph 14).

Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #37 Distribution Factors or Precast/Prestressed Concrete Elements Distribution Factor Method or Moment and Shear The bending moment or exterior beams is determined by multiplying the distribution actor or interior beams by a actor, e, which accounts or the distribution o load to the exterior girder.

The ACI 318 code, upon which this provision is based, requires lexural members (that is, members with a superimposed axial load o < 0.1 c A g ) to have ε s > AASHTO does not impose this requirement. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #49 Flexure and Axial Loads Assumptions or Strength and Extreme Event Limit States Deinition o strain conditions or determining tension or compression control. Note that tensile strain in the steel closest to the tensile ace is used. Balanced condition is when ε t = ε y. For Grade 60 steel and all prestressing steel, ε y may be taken as Note that or prestressing steel, ε t is the tensile strain which occurs in the steel ater the pre-compression in the concrete is lost. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #50

26 Flexure and Axial Loads Assumptions or Strength and Extreme Event Limit States For a prestressed beam, it is important to understand the deinition o ε t. d t Begin by considering the strain condition o the beam at the point where the only loads are the prestressing orce and the beam sel weight. In this condition, the top o the beam is usually in tension (due to the prestressing). There is a net tensile strain in the prestressing steel o ε p1. This is the initial pull minus any strain lost due to prestress losses. At the level o the steel, there is a compressive strain the concrete, ε c. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #51 Flexure and Axial Loads Assumptions or Strength and Extreme Event Limit States d t As load is applied, the strain proile changes, the bottom decompresses and eventually reaches a point where the CONCRETE strain at the level o the steel is 0. This is called decompression. I there were no losses (except or elastic shortening), the strain in the steel, ε p2 at this point would be the initial pull. The actual strain in the steel, with losses, can be calculated by mechanics. Do Not Duplicate Prestressed Concrete: Slide #52

27 Flexure and Axial Loads Assumptions or Strength and Extreme Event Limit States d t This is the condition at M n. The compressive strain in the concrete is The total strain in the prestressing steel is the sum o the strain in the steel at decompression, ε p2, and the strain developed between decompression and the ultimate state, ε t. The speciications only regulate the strain developed between decompression and the ultimate state, ε t. The additional strain in the prestressing steel, ε p2 is not part o the speciication.

However, in general, the Φ actor is reduced at a slightly lower rate than moment resistance is gained. There is a slight increase in M n but it is minimal.
