Type IV PCB Maximum Span
Type IV PCB Maximum Span
(OP)
How far (span length) have you pushed the Type IV's. At that span length what was your spacing. Was it spongy (excessive deflections?)under heavy traffic.
I'm curious as to what lengths have been constructed. Would the old beam dept to span ratio of 1/25 apply?
Thanks, Tincan.

Usually by the time that we're getting into the 110-120' range, I use bulb-tee girders or the AASHTO Type 6.
