TX I-Girder Top bars
TX I-Girder Top bars
(OP)
Tx prestressed Girder.
Contractor wants to replace the Top T-bars (4)- #4 bars on Tx40 girder with 1/2' diameter strands. Saying it helps on their production process. I did not see related Tx dot Documents to permit the replacement option.
Any Bridge Engineering has similar experiences? what you suggest or share your opinions.
thanks.

I'd personally be against it regardless of whether it was the same area of steel.
