#FHWA.dot.gov
The manual is puplished by FHWA and free to download.
This Manual contains information related to the analysis and design of cast-in-place concrete
box girder bridges prestressed with post-tensioning tendons.
The Manual reviews features of the
construction of cast-in-place concrete box girder bridges, material characteristics that impact
design, fundamentals of prestressed concrete, and losses in prestressing force related to posttensioned construction. Also presented in this Manual are approaches to the longitudinal and
transverse analysis of the box girder superstructure. Both single-cell and multi-cell box girders
are discussed. Design examples are presented in Appendices to this Manual
