This paper presents and statistically analyzes the material strengths collected on a sample of Existing Italian Prestressed Concrete Bridges (PCBs). The study describes the data collection process, shows the statistical results, and validates the assumed distributions (Normal for steel, Log-Normal for concrete) by using goodness-of-fit tests. The database is a valuable tool for researchers and practitioners, as it allows them to enhance the knowledge of materials used for bridges construction, thereby reducing uncertainties in structural assessments.

Abstract
This paper presents and statistically analyzes the material strengths collected on a sample of Existing Italian Prestressed Concrete Bridges (PCBs). The study describes the data collection process, shows the statistical results, and validates the assumed distributions (Normal for steel, Log-Normal for concrete) by using goodness-of-fit tests. The database is a valuable tool for researchers and practitioners, as it allows them to enhance the knowledge of materials used for bridges construction, thereby reducing uncertainties in structural assessments.File in questo prodotto:
