@mateenq2: The engineering behind concrete bridges is simple as a concept but gets complicated when going in depth. This is because with concrete members it’s intuitive to place steel reinforcement or rebar where we’re expecting to see tensile bending stresses are straight up tension. This however does need to quantified as many stress checks need to be carried to ensure the beam can handle the prestressing as well as the forces from when the bridge is in service. There are methods such as debonding or even having steel strands at both top and bottom at the beam to help reduce the forces and stresses from the prestressing. #engineering #construction #structuralengineering #civilengineering #engineeringstudent
