Fact Sheet 1.4: Bridges
Fact Sheet 1.4: Bridges The mitigation objective of this Fact Sheet is to prevent or minimize damage to bridges from flooding, erosion
A sealing compound (either poured rubber or silicone) is poured from the roadway surface to seal the opening. Maintenance requirements include periodic cleaning, replacement of the surface seal, replacement of the filler, and repairs to the roadway. Here are some common methods and recommended products: Repair Methods 1. Evaluate the extent of the damage. Since the main arch ring is an eccentrically compressed member, the best approach is section enlargement — roughening the surface, drilling and inserting rebar, and applying shotcrete or cast-in-pla. One method of preventing the possibility of sagging under load is to build a relieving arch above. Silicone pavement sealants are ideal for se...
