Concrete Bridge Design--Joint ACI-ASCE

(Organized 1963)

Chair: Nur Yazdani TAC Contact: Hani Nassif

Mission

Develop and report information on analysis and design of reinforced and prestressed concrete bridges and guideways.

Goals

1) Revise "Analysis and Design of Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete Guideway Structures" according to TAC review comments, by fall 2010; 2) Revise and resubmit various chapters of "Analysis and Design of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Structures" (ACI 343R) and submit to TAC; 3) Develop a new document on concrete bridge deck design; 4) Organize various sessions at future ACI conventions and SEI congress.
