Bridge Deck Construction Manual
Typically, profiling the last 100 ft of the bridge deck is sufficient to make any adjustments between the as-built deck profile, the new approach slab, and the new roadway profile.

The main issue is with the deck slope: the slope direction changes across the width of the bridge, but the deck template is constrained to a single alignment. This means the slope is

The most typical deck system used in Arizona is a cast-in-place deck slab spanning transversely over a series of girders. This type of deck shall be designed using an approximate elastic method and the

I once did a bridge with an 11% slope. It was on a local road over the interstate (don''t think that interstates are allowed to have such grades - trucks can''t use them!!). Anyway you do need

Make the beam taller overlapping the deck and join geometry + switch join order. Or add a flat slab between the sloped deck and the beam and join geometry it with the deck.

Prestressed laminated decks are used on a variety of bridge superstructures, such as trusses and multi-beam bridges, and they can be used as the superstructure itself for shorter span bridges.

This cross slope criteria applies to all bridge decks whether of cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, or open steel decking. Use transitions to adjust for differences in cross slope between the approach
Defining Ineffective Flow Areas
A basic problem in defining the bridge data is the definition of ineffective flow areas near the bridge structure. Referring to the figure below, the dashed lines represent the effective flow...
