Abstract

In this study, the constructability of a full-depth precast deck installation on a steel girder bridge with injection channel connection was evaluated. This type of girder has been developed to avoid the overlap between the shear studs and the bridge deck, which is a major issue causing delays in modular construction. First, the optimal dimensions and lifting method for the deck were determined through finite element analysis. Subsequently, the constructability of deck installation on the bridge was evaluated with various radii of curvature using building information modeling (BIM). For the efficient use of BIM, algorithm-based models for the girder and deck were developed to change their shapes easily.
