Bridges are predominant structure which is customarily constructed over numerous areas like highways, rail lines, canals, water bodies, pipelines, metros and urban roads for cut down the traffic congestion and guide to desire locations. The precast segmental bridges have significant role in this area worldwide in the past 10 years. The precast segmental bridges are producing from the casting yard, which is away from the urban traffic congestion. These precast elements are produced by a designed mold and transported to the construction site and assembled by post tensioning cables. In the current frame of construction scenario segmental bridges have a significant roll over traditional RCC/PSC cast in situ bridges or precast I girder bridges.
