This paper describes the replacement of the existing University Drive/Crowchild Trail Bridge superstructure in Calgary, Alberta with a new superstructure consisting of steel girders and a concrete deck slab. The bridge consists of three continuous spans and is the first continuous bridge to utilize the steel free deck system. The steel free deck slab was designed and constructed without internal mild steel reinforcement. External steel straps between girders and internal fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) bars in the cantilever portions were used to reinforce the deck. The paper describes the detailed analysis, the design procedures and the construction methods used for this bridge.
