Guidelines for Concrete Mixtures Containing Supplementary Cementitious Materials to Enhance Durability of Bridge Decks
Author: Lawler, John S | Size: 3.98 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Transportation Research Board | Year: 2007 | pages: 125 | ISBN: 9780309098977
This report presents guidelines to facilitate highway agencies' use of supplementary cementitious materials to enhance durability of concrete used in highway construction, especially bridge decks. Encompassed in these guidelines is a methodology for selecting optimum concrete mixture proportions. The methodology focuses on durability aspects of concrete and the performance requirements for specific environmental conditions and is presented in a text format and as a computational tool, in the form of a Visual Basic-driven Microsoft® Excel spreadsheet. Background information, a user's guide, and a hypothetical case study are also available. These guidelines should be of interest to state engineers and others involved in the design and construction of concrete bridge decks and other structures incorporating supplementary cementitious materials.

This report will be of interest to transportation departments that are responsible for constructing and maintaining bridges that span waterways. It provides selection criteria and guidelines for the design and construction of countermeasures to protect bridge abutments and approach embankments from scour damage. Guidelines are provided for the following abutment countermeasures: riprap, cable-tied blocks, geobags, parallel walls, spur dikes located locally to the abutment, and abutment collars.

Countermeasures to Protect Bridge Piers from Scour
Author: Lagasse, P F | Size: 14.58 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Transportation Research Board | Year: 2007 | pages: 287 | ISBN: 9780309099097
This report documents research on local scour at bridge piers resulting in the development and recommendation of a practical selection criteria for bridge-pier scour countermeasures, guidelines and specifications for design and construction of those countermeasures, and guidelines for their inspection, maintenance, and performance evaluation. Because of their critical role in ensuring bridge integrity and potentially high cost of these countermeasures, it is important that the most appropriate countermeasures be selected, designed, and constructed. The contents of this report are, therefore, of immediate interest to highway professionals responsible for planning, administrating, evaluating, designing, constructing, inspecting and maintaining bridges and other structures founded in erosive areas. The report is also of interest to those charged with specifying materials testing procedures and acceptable results, setting budget goals, and making policy.

This report presents recommended construction specifications to facilitate highway agencies' use of bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for the repair and retrofit of concrete structures. These specifications cover the construction of FRP systems used as externally bonded or near surface-mounted reinforcement to enhance axial, shear, or flexural strength of a concrete member. These specifications are supplemented by a construction process control manual that provides a program for assuring a consistent and uniform control of quality and regulatory requirements. The material contained in this report will be of immediate interest to engineers, inspectors, contractors, suppliers, and others involved in the repair and retrofit of concrete structures using FRP composites.
