Title: PROTOCOL FOR IN-SERVICE EVALUATION OF BRIDGES WITH EPOXY-COATED REINFORCING STEEL
Accession Number: 00736839
Record Type: Monograph
Abstract: This digest announces the results of NCHRP Project 10-37B, "Protocol for the Evaluation of Existing Bridges Containing Epoxy-Coated Reinforcing Steel". Research and experience indicate the potential for future failures in the performance of epoxy-coated reinforcing steel in concrete bridges. Although not yet experiencing failures and seeing little sign they will, many transportation departments will be examining their existing structures in light of this potential for failure. To foster a better understanding of the problem, a resource document to guide these examinations and to provide some uniformity in the data collected has been prepared. The data to be collected will help define failure mechanisms, improve the prediction of failures, and guide improvements in the corrosion protection of reinforced concrete bridges.
