"The HCM includes three printed volumes (Volumes 1-3) that can be purchased from the Transportation Research Board in print and electronic formats. Volume 4 is a free online resource that supports the rest of the manual. It includes: Supplemental chapters 25-38, providing additional details of the methodologies described in the Volume 1-3 chapters, example problems, and other resources; A technical reference library providing access to a significant portion of the research supporting HCM methods; Two applications guides demonstrating how the HCM can be applied to planning-level analysis and a variety of traffic operations applications; Interpretations, updates, and errata for the HCM (as they are developed);A discussion forum allowing HCM users to ask questions and collaborate on HCM-related matters; and Notifications of chapter updates, active discussions, and more via an optional e-mail notification feature."--Publisher.
The objectives of this investigation were: to identify the limitations of existing prestressed concrete girder cross sections relative to the use of high-strength concrete; to examine the feasibility of using modified cross sections to take advantage of the high-strength concretes; to investigate the use of alternative construction systems; and to define factors that limit the application of high-strength concrete. The research was performed using the computer program "BRIDGE" to determine relative unit costs and maximum span lengths for different simple-span prestressed concrete bridge designs
