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 failuresPrestressed construction.Building failures.624.28624/.28Tandler JensMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911138574903321UNINA
