BridgeLink (PGSuper, PGSplice)
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)
BridgeLink is a framework that brings together the bridge programs of the Washington State Department of Transportation. PGSuper designs, analyses and load-rates precast pretensioned bridge girders, PGSplice handles spliced post-tensioned girders, XBRate load-rates reinforced concrete cross beams (bent caps), BEToolbox holds engineering utilities, and Barlist computes reinforcing steel quantities. Bridge engineers use it to design and check bridges to the AASHTO LRFD specifications. Limitation: it is tailored to US transportation agency practice and runs on Windows only.
