Abstract:

Every year, many highway bridge structures are damaged by impact of heavy trucks. Trucks were collided to bridge columns and beams. To minimize traffic disruption and open highway to public sooner, a rapid repair technologies are critically needs. Cases studies will be presented to discuss the lesson learned from rapid repair technologies in Texas.
