  1. Potential Solutions Goals for Design – What are we concerned about? • Primary Goal: Get the deck on successfully • Stability during deck pour • Girder plumbness • Deck thickness, cover, smoothness • Secondary Goal • Design efficiency

  2. Potential Solutions- Background:Current Designs

  3. Potential Solutions- BackgroundCurrent Designs “On skewed structures, in order to accommodate differential dead load deflections of adjacent stringers that exceed ½ inch at any intermediate crossframe location, the erection bolt holes in the crossframe members should be detailed as slotted holes. Hole dimensions shall be 1/16” wider than the nominal bolt diameter and ¾” longer than the nominal bolt diameter. Holes in the stiffeners shall be 3/16” larger than the diameter of the erection bolts. Final bolting and welding shall not be completed until after the deck concrete has been placed.“

  4. Potential Solutions- Background:Current Designs

  5. Potential Solutions One obvious solution – reduce or eliminate skew • Solution 1 – Erect Girders Plumb • Solution 2 – Erect Girders Out of Plumb (Pre-twist girders) • Solution 3 – Stiffen Superstructure • Solution 4 – Lean-on Bracing

  6. Potential Solutions – Solution 1Erect Girders Plumb • Erect girders plumb • Install all crossframes (welded) • Girders rotate out of plumb during deck placement • Girders will be permanently twisted “Business as Usual” Solution

  7. Potential Solutions – Solution 1Erect Girders Plumb Issues • How much twist is too much ? • Girders • Bearings • Crossframes

  8. Potential Solutions – Solution 2Erect Girders out of Plumb Erect girders out of plumb (twisted) and girders rotate to plumb during deck placement

  9. Potential Solutions – Solution 2Erect Girders out of Plumb AASHTO/NSBA Guidelines for Constructability

  10. AASHTO/NSBA Guidelines for Constructability Method for Erecting Girders Out of Plumb

  11. Potential Solutions – Solution 2Erect Girders out of Plumb Issues • Steel fit-up during erection • Ability of erectors • Where has it been done before ? Is it really feasible? • Steel detailing done correctly ? • Potential finger pointing (detailer, erector, designer, owner)

  12. Potential Solutions – Solution 3Stiffen Superstructure • Stiffen superstructure • Add steel • Bigger flanges • Deeper webs • Add girder line(s) • Use shored construction • Benefit – girder twist reduces with increased girder stiffness

  13. Potential Solutions – Solution 3Stiffen Superstructure • Shored Construction • Advantage • Composite for all dead and live loads

  14. Potential Solutions – Solution 3Stiffen Superstructure • Disadvantages • Cost of temporary shoring • Need good foundations for shoring • Can’t put shoring in traffic • Undesirable to put shoring in waterway • Serious issues with redecking

  15. Potential Solutions – Solution 3Stiffen Superstructure Example 1: Single span, 150’ span, 60 deg., 50 ksi

  16. Potential Solutions – Solution 3Stiffen Superstructure Example 2: Single span, 166’ span, 63 deg. Skew
