Questions have been raised about the behaviour of these structures beyond service loads.A comprehensive numerical analysis has been carried out comparing the behaviour of three different types of externally prestressed bridges to a conventionally internally prestressed bridge. The external types are a monolithically built bridge with external tendons, a monolithically built bridge with external tendons and Prestressed constructionBuilding failuresElectronic books.Prestressed construction.Building failures.624.28624/.28Tandler Jens866327MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458942703321Collapse analysis of externally prestressed structures1933444UNINA
