Study and Design of Post-Tensioned Stress of T- Box Girder Bridge by IRC: 112-2011

The construction of the bridge has reached an important milestone worldwide today. Bridges are an essential element of any road network and the use of post-tensioned type girder bridges is gaining popularity in the bridge engineering brotherhood because of their better stability, usability, economy, aesthetic appearance, and structural efficiency. In this thesis, analysis and design of prefabricated concrete bridges (Deck Floor, T-Beam, and Box Beam) was performed using IRC: 112-2011. The integrated concrete code (IRC: 112), which includes a code for reinforced and pre-reinforced concrete structures, published by the Indian Road Congress in November 2011, represents a new generation code that differs significantly from previous codes (for example, IRC: 21 RCC). IRC: 18 buildings and structures of the PSC). IRC: 21 and IRC: 18 have been withdrawn with the release of IRC: 112. The main difference between IRC: 112 and legacy a code is that IRC: 112 are based on the limitations theory while the previous codes are based on the stress design philosophy.
