Revolutionizing Bridge Construction: Prefabricated Panels for Minimal Traffic Disruption.
Prefabricated concrete bridge deck panels are a convenient alternative to traditional on-site construction. These panels are made in a controlled environment off-site and then brought to the bridge location for installation. This method reduces on-site work, traffic disruptions, and safety risks for workers and the public. The panels are durable, high-quality, and can be installed with minimal impact on traffic flow. A recent report by the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute highlights the benefits of using full-depth precast concrete bridge deck panels, including improved construction efficiency and reduced economic impact from road closures.
