Prestress Losses and Development of Short-term Data Acquisition System for Bridge Monitoring (Jun 2019, MPC-19-387)
Justin Pace, Paul Barr, and Phillip Powelson

When a vehicle drives over a bridge, each bridge girder carries a portion of the vehicle's weight. This load causes strain in the bottom of the bridge girders.

Long-Term Behavior of Precast Concrete Bridges (Jul 2018, MPC-18-352)
Phillip Powelson, Paul J. Barr, and Marv W. Halling

For this research, sensors were used to investigate the differences in prestress losses and temperature gradients in a concrete deck bulb tee girder bridge. The Millville Bridge was built as an access point to the Ridgeline High School in Millville, Utah. The bridge was built in 2016 and presently supports...
