Nervi's design and construction methods for two thin-shell structures : the Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena
… the Nervi System in Rome. The types of different precast panels were reduced to increase repetition and refinement was made to the multi-step formwork system to reduce the amount of wooden formwork while keeping a high level of accuracy for the shape of the precast panels.

Performance Criteria Recommendations for Mortars Used in Full-Depth Precast Concrete Bridge Deck Panel Systems
The use of full-depth precast concrete bridge deck panels is becoming more and more attractive to transportation authorities throughout the country. In comparison to conventional cast-in-place decks, precast decks are of higher quality, allow for the bridge to be opened to traffic in less time and …

Horizontal Shear Connectors for Precast Prestressed Bridge Decks
The full-width, full-depth precast panel system is very convenient for rehabilitation of deteriorated decks as well as for new bridge construction. The horizontal shear strength at the interface between the two interconnected elements is of primary importance in order to provide composite action. …

Evaluation of Precast Portland Cement Concrete Panels for Airfield Pavement Repairs
… due to ever decreasing construction timelines. Precast concrete panel technology offers a potential repair alternative to conventional cast-in-place PCC because the panel is fully cured and has gained full strength prior to its use. This repaired surface may be trafficked immediately, thus …

Recommendations for Longitudinal Post-Tensioning in Full-Depth Precast Concrete Bridge Deck Panels
Full-depth precast concrete panels offer an efficient alternative to traditional cast-in-place concrete for replacement or new construction of bridge decks. Research has shown that longitudinal post-tensioning helps keep the precast bridge deck in compression and avoid problems such as leaking, …
