Replaceable Unbonded Tendons for Post-Tensioned Bridges
The Florida Department of Transportation has released a report that analyzes flexible fillers for prestressed concrete in place of cementitious grout in post-tensioning tendon profiles used in bridge construction. This research focuses on three areas:
- Design, construction, and injection of full-scale post-tensioning tendon mockups
- Structural implications of the change to flexible fillers
- Development of a cost-effective monitoring system for unbonded post-tensioning tendons
