Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many transportation departments have significant practical experience with bridge preservation and have developed conclusions regarding the effectiveness of bridge preservation actions based on those experiences. However, limited efforts have been made to identify, measure, evaluate, and document the short- and long-term performance of specific bridge preservation actions. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Research Report 950: Proposed AASHTO Guides for Bridge Preservation Actions presents the development of two AASHTO guides for bridge preservation, including a general guide to preservation of highway bridges and a guide to preservation of highway bridge decks. Supplementary to the report is Appendix B: Summaries of Information from State DOTs.

Book Bridge Maintenance Reference Manual

Download or read book Bridge Maintenance Reference Manual written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is a comprehensive manual on programs, procedures, and techniques for properly preserving and maintaining highway bridges. This manual is primarily geared towards individuals involved in onsite bridge maintenance and preservation activities and those that supervise and manage these activities, however many subjects may be of value to engineers and preservation specialists. The BMRM is a revision and upgrading of the previous manual. Improved bridge maintenance techniques are addressed, and suggested procedures, decision-aid matrices and job order checklists are provided. The purpose of the BMRM is to provide instructions and references for performing a wide range of useful and effective bridge concepts that can be adapted and expanded to provide solutions to specific bridge problems. These procedures are not intended to override existing agency guidelines or policy, but are to be used as a source of information when the need arises. They are not intended as a substitute for consulting an engineer with appropriate qualifications to determine the proper repair method. This manual has been developed as a reference to a new National Highway Institute course series on Bridge Maintenance, consisting of an instructor-led course, "Bridge Maintenance" (FHWA-NHI-130108); and four web-based training courses, "Fundamentals of Bridge Maintenance" (FHWA-NHI-130107A), "Bridge Maintenance Painting" (FHWA-NHI-130107B), "Maintenance of Movable Bridges" (FHWA-NHI-130107C), and "Maintenance of Masonry Bridge Elements" (FHWA-NHI-130107D).

Book Bridge Preservation Treatments and Best Practices

Download or read book Bridge Preservation Treatments and Best Practices written by Mark Bowman and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aging of the bridge infrastructure inventory has caused Department of Transportation agencies to critically focus on bridge preservation and replacement needs, while often faced with constrained or reduced budgets every year. A strategic bridge preventive maintenance program has been shown to be an effective way to preserve and extend bridge service lives. A bridge preventive maintenance program is related to routine practices that are repeated with some particular frequency to obtain the best results. Moreover, it is well known that frequently performing less-costly preventive maintenance activities results in a more efficient alternative than performing fewer expensive repairs/rehabilitation or even replacements of bridge elements. The objective of this research was to review bridge maintenance activities recommended by specialized literature, to examine maintenance activities currently conducted by the various INDOT districts, and also to review maintenance activities performed by several other DOT agencies. Based on the results of this review, a list of ten new and enhanced bridge preventive maintenance activities was identified to improve the effectiveness of bridge maintenance operations in Indiana. The required conditions and frequency to perform each activity was analyzed, and the cost and benefit of such operations was studied to ensure that the proposed activities are economically feasible and sustainable.
