Bridge Girder (0:22)

 

The concrete “Bulb-Tee” girder types used in bridge construction require shear reinforcement in the web. WWR sheets are ideal for this type of reinforcement. The sheets can be fabricated to accommodate varying vertical steel spacing and the cross wires provide the stability for placement.


 

The design procedure follows the AASHTO specification modified compression field theory. Corresponding AASHTO LRFD sections are cited in the example.
