The current practices in systems construction of precast and cast-in-place concrete superstructures are reviewed. The paper covers a wide range of bridges from shorter single-span to longer multispan bridges. It discusses currently used standard sections, their economic and operational efficiencies, as well as their limitations. It descibes effective use of systems techniques that can optimize costs related to formwork, on- or off-site labor, materials, equipment, time, transportation, and traffic detours. Systems techniques that can make superstructure rehabilitation alternatives for deficient bridges economically feasible are also given. (Authors)
