Abstract

Due to the standardized (modular) production of components, fast construction speed, easy quality control, and favorable environmental protection, the use of prefabricated bridge is attractive, especially to sea-crossing bridges and urban bridges. This paper reviews available information concerning the application and development of prefabricated bridges. Three bridge examples are then introduced, while the structural design and the construction methods of prefabricated bridge piers are described in detail. Furthermore, main constructions of segmented piers are concluded. Finally the future research direction of fabricated bridge is viewed.
