Whiteside County IDOT Contract 85734
Whiteside County Engineer Russ Renner, PE, SE and Structural Department Head Keith Brandau, PE, SE from Chastain & Associates inspect a completed precast modular deck section poured on a Valmont U-BEAM galvanized steel tub girder at Illini Concrete in Tremont, IL. Whiteside County is utilizing modular deck sections for accelerated bridge construction (ABC) because the 4-lane wide x 108' long superstructure will be reconstructed while remaining open to live traffic.
In addition to facilitating ABC construction, Valmont U-BEAMS feature 100-year+ service life while weighing substantially less than traditional concrete beams, allowing the use of smaller equipment to set the beams. Press brake steel tub girders are an AASHTO Innovation Focus Technology.
