PREFACE

AASHTO first published Guide Specifications for Horizontally
Curved Highway Bridges
in 1980. These Guide Specifications
included Allowable Stress Design (ASD) provisions developed by the
Consortium of University Research Teams (CURT) and approved by
ballot of the AASHTO Highway Subcommittee on Bridges and Structures
in November 1976. CURT consisted of Carnegie-Mellon University, the
University of Pennsylvania, the University of Rhode Island and
Syracuse University. The 1980 Guide Specifications also included
Load Factor Design (LFD) provisions developed in American Iron and
Steel Institute (AISI) Project 190 and approved by ballot of the
AASHTO Highway Subcommittee on Bridges and Structures (HSCOBS) in
October 1979. The Guide Specifications covered both I and box
girders.

Changes to the 1980 Guide Specifications were included in the
AASHTO Interim Specifications - Bridges for the years
1981, 1982, 1984, 1985, 1986, and 1990. A new version of the
Guide Specifications for Horizontally Curved Highway
Bridges
was published in 1993. It included these interim
changes, and additional changes, but did not reflect the extensive
research on curvedgirder bridges that has been conducted since 1980
or many important changes in related provisions of the
straight-girder specifications.

As a result of the research work on curved bridges conducted by
the FHWA and several research institutes, design provisions for
both straight and curved bridges were developed. As part of the
NCHRP 12-52 project, these design provisions were incorporated into
the AASHTO-LRFD Bridge Design Specifications in two stages. The
design provisions for straight bridges were approved by ballot of
the HSCOBS in 2003 and were incorporated into the third edition of
the AASHTO-LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, published in 2004.
The design provisions for curved bridges were approved by ballot of
the HSCOBS in 2004 and are to be published as part of the 2005
Interim Specifications to the AASHTO-LRFD Bridge Design
Specifications.

This Horizontally Curved Steel Box Girder Bridge Design Example
was originally developed in the NCHRP 12-38 project using the 1993
AASHTO Guide Specifications for Horizontally Curved Steel Girder
Bridges. It was updated to illustrate the applicability of the
revisions to the AASHTOLRFD Bridge Design Specifications included
in the 2005 Interim Specifications which were meant to incorporate
curved bridges. As in the NCHRP 12-38 example, a composite bottom
flange option is provided for the bottom flange in the negative
moment regions. This Design Example was compiled as a part of the
deliverables in National Cooperative Highway Research Program
Project 12-52.
