Abstract:

This report proposes modifications to the current AASHTO LRFD Specifications for Structural Supports for Highway Signs, Luminaires, and Traffic Signals and the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications that, if implemented, will help mitigate weldment cracking that occurs due to the galvanizing process. This should enable these assets to achieve their intended service life and eliminate related safety concerns. This report will be of immediate interest to state bridge and construction engineers and others involved in the different aspects of steel structures.
