The Florida Department of Transportation has released a report that explores procedures for determining bracing forces during bridge construction and examines wind load coefficients (drag, torque, and lift) for common bridge girder shapes with stay-in-place (SIP) form work and overhang form work in place. The report also includes recommended global (system) pressure coefficients (e.g., for strength design of substructures).
