The cracking of a post-tensioned T-beam superstructure, which was built using the incremental launching method, is analyzed in the paper. The problem is studied in detail, as specific damage was observed in the form of longitudinal cracks, especially in the mid-height zone of the girder at the interface of two assembly sections. The paper is a case study. A detailed inspection is done and non-destructive testing results of the girders are briefly discussed. The attention is especially focused on advanced and comprehensive numerical simulations of the bridge mechanical behavior. Linear and nonlinear static calculations are performed employing the Finite Element Method at global and local levels of precision, enabling deep insight into the bridge response during all the stages of bridge construction and after it is opened to traffic. The crack propagation process in local analyses is described by the application of the Concrete Damage Plasticity law, the parameters of which were carefully chosen. The predicted damage patterns closely resemble those observed at the site. The results reveal, that the girder damage process was initiated when centric prestressing was applied, because vertical reinforcement of the assembly section front-end surface was not designed. However, the damage did not compromise the safety of the bridge. Finally, the repair methods employed are described and also a discussion is presented on how to prevent the occurrence of such cracking.
