This guide is an example of balanced cantilever construction using LARSA 4D. The bridge alignment has a circular curve with super elevation and nonprismatic cross-section variation. The girder has post-tensioned tendons. Code check using Ultimate Strength Check is performed.
This document describes two tools in LARSA 4D for cable tension optimization using automated iterative procedures to determine cable prestress force.
This manual is a reference for the sample problems that are included with LARSA 4D. They are simplistic problems meant for verification purposes.
