Abstract:

The system-construction method has been applied widely in the construction of medium-span bridges in the United States in recent years. The advantage of achieving efficiency through repetition of work becomes obvious. The most commonly used schemes are put into four groups: incremental launching, cantilevering, span by span, and stage construction. Both precast and cast-in-place applications are discussed.
