BRIDGE APPARATUS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION

Bridge systems and methods for constructing bridges having overhang surfaces employing generally rectangular, precast, prestressed concrete panels. One method includes delivering a plurality of generally rectangular, precast, prestressed concrete panels to an installation site, and delivering one or more support beams to the installation site, each support beam having a support and a base. The concrete panels are positioned on the supports of the one or more support beams with an overhang panel section and a traffic panel section. The concrete panels are then connected to the support beams by positioning steel reinforcement in block outs or voids, pouring unsolidified concrete into the voids, and curing the unsolidified concrete to form an overhang traffic surface. Bridges constructed employing the precast, prestressed concrete panels and methods. Other bridge systems employ prestressed concrete L-walls and double-T members, where weight-bearing L-walls have pockets for webs of the double-T members.

VIADUCT STRUCTURE
20230167613 · 2023-06-01 ·

Provided is a viaduct structure. The viaduct structure consists of steel bridge columns, steel plate girders, a bridge deck bottom steel plate, bridge deck side steel plates and cement-gravel concrete, where the steel bridge columns, the steel plate girders and the bridge deck bottom steel plate are welded to one another to form the ceiling type steel architecture, the bridge deck side steel plates are welded to the bridge deck bottom steel plate, and the cement-gravel concrete is poured in a groove-like structure formed by the bridge deck side steel plates and the bridge deck bottom steel plate. The viaduct structure has the advantages of a firm structure, a thin bridge deck, the thin steel plate girders, a low height of the bridge deck, no plywoods required for pouring, convenient construction, low waste, a low material consumption, a low construction cost, a short construction period, etc.

Climbing Inhibition System
20170292234 · 2017-10-12 ·

A climbing inhibition system for inhibiting a person from vandalizing a bridge includes a bridge that has a lateral surface. The lateral surface has a ledge extending outwardly therefrom. A wedge is coupled to the lateral surface of the bridge. Thus, the wedge may inhibit a person from gaining a foothold on the ledge thereby inhibiting the person from defacing or vandalizing the lateral surface.
