Scope of Work and Project Summary
The Loop 12 project consisted of the reconstruction of State Loop 12, along with the renovation of existing interchanges between four major highways – State Loop 12, State Spur 482, State Highway 114 and 183.
The contract included renovation of the interchange and existing toll gantry, construction of 32 new bridges, walls and concrete pavement, widening of existing main lanes, and frontage roads.
The project included eleven post-tensioned straddle bent caps, and from a design standpoint, this type of bent caps helps minimize span lengths on the bridges, therefore allowing the use of concrete girders which helps to speed up the project in comparison with the use of steel girders.
Traffic congestion was very high, with capacity beyond the old cloverleaf ramps, so the new design successfully addressed this issue and provided relief of congestion in one of the busiest areas of the DFW.
