This book reports the findings of a joint study group set up by the French and UK central government highway agencies to liaise on issues concerning post-tensioned concrete bridges and seek solutions for problems where they exist. Throughout the years, these bodies have accumulated a wealth of knowledge, most of which has been unpublished until now. This book makes available for the first time the valuable experiences of the authors, most of whom have been personally responsible for formulating and administering the relevant rules and regulations in their respective countries.
