Spring Field Review Site 9
Spring Field Review Site 9
Description: R-2548A - WASHINGTON-TYRRELL COUNTIES
LOCATION: Bridge on US 64 between SR 1119 and SR 1125
ITEM(S) OF INTEREST:
Curved alignment on a widened cored slab structure with an asphalt overlay.
Observations and Points of Discussion:
Asphalt cracking over the joints
Some of the prestressed piles had poor finish.
Cracking on acute corners of cored slabs on a skew.
Repairs performed with appropriate product from approved list (epoxy motar)
Bridge had horizontal drains through the rail at the ends of the bridge over the buffer zones.
For such a long structure, drainage could have been more efficient with a closed drainage system.
