The Contractor may choose from these options when constructing the structure according to the
Department plans: 734734734734734734
The Contractor may use post-tensioning systems other than those shown on the plans. The alternative system
may use wires, bars, or strands anchored with friction grips or bearings.
Unless the plans allow, do not use prestressing systems that incorporate dead-end anchorages.
Choose alternative systems that can be stressed from either end unless the construction staging does not
allow room to stress tendons from both ends. In this case, use anchorage systems with compression plates or
fittings to seat anchor wedges.
Stressing or anchorage blocks for the structure may deviate from those shown on the plans.
Alternate stressing or anchorage blocks must be located inside the box. Place the blocks in any of the
following locations:
• At the juncture of the bottom of the top slab
• At the juncture of the top of the bottom slab and the web walls
• Within fillet areas in reinforced stressing blocks
• In partial depth diaphragms
Permanent or temporary stressing blockouts are allowed in the top of the top slab when post-tensioning ducts
do not have a moisture-retaining low point.
The horizontal tolerance for longitudinal ducts in the top or bottom slab is plus or minus 1 in. (25 mm). The
vertical tolerance for longitudinal ducts is plus or minus ¼ in. (6 mm).
