Special attention is required in the construction of horizontally curved steel I-girder bridges due to coupled effects of primary bending and torsional forces. Misguided steel erection procedures can lead to undesired stresses, deflections, and rotations in these types of bridges, resulting in a structure with misaligned geometry and in an unknown state of stress. Further complicating the issue, little guidance related to curved bridge behavior during construction is provided by current design codes, leaving contractors and designers uncertain as to the most appropriate steps to take to achieve an efficient, safe structure. A horizontally curved, six-span steel I-girder bridge located in central Pennsylvania that experienced severe geometric misalignments and fit-up complications during steel erection was studied to investigate curved girder behavior during construction. The structure was monitored during corrective procedures intended to realign it with the design geometry, and field data used to calibrate a three-dimensional computer model generated via SAP2000. The techniques and assumptions proven in the calibration process were used to create a numerical model of a three-span continuous portion of the bridge, which was the subject of several analyses exploring the effects erection sequencing, implementation of upper lateral bracing, and use of temporary supports had on the final deformed shape of the curved superstructure. Findings indicated that using paired girder erection produced smaller radial and vertical deformations than single girder techniques for this structure, and that the use of lateral bracing between the fascia and adjacent interior girders and the placement of temporary shoring towers at span quarter points are both effective means of further reducing levels of deflection.
