STRUCTURE EVALUATION SUMMARY

This steel multi-beam bridge is in fair condition overall. Problems include delamination and spalling with exposed rebar on the top surface of the deck in several locations and spalling with exposed rebar on Piers #1, #3, and #6, as well as at both abutments. In addition, there is deterioration of the west sidewalk joint sealant over Pier #1 and at the south bridge end. There is also a debris accumulation with vegetation growth along the west curbline and east curbline at the joints. Active leakage through the joints and onto the steel superstructure and pier caps was noted at pier #1 and #6.

Since the previous inspection, the drop grate inlet located at the southwest shoulder of the south approach has been repaired.

Corrective measures should be taken as outlined in this report to help prevent the possible development of more serious or costly problems in the future. It should be noted this inspection was conducted without the aid of a snooper truck.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND ESTIMATED COSTS STRUCTURE NO. 5140-124P

A (Critical) - Structure is closed, in imminent danger of collapse, or presents a critical safety hazard.

B (Major) - Structure is seriously deficient or presents a safety hazard, but can remain in service at reduced loads or with frequent inspections.

C (Moderate) - Structure is deficient, functionally obsolete, or requires substantial repairs to prevent a serious deficiency or unsafe condition.

D (Minor) - Structure is generally in good condition. Preventative maintenance may be required.

E (Special) - Structure is under construction or reconstruction.

CONDITION RATING CODES FOR ITEMS 58 - 62, 222, 223

N NOT APPLICABLE 3 SERIOUS CONDITION - loss of section, deterioration, spalling, or scour have seriously affected primary structural components. Local failures are possible.

9 EXCELLENT CONDITION Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present.

8 VERY GOOD CONDITION - no problems noted. 2 CRITICAL CONDITION - advanced deterioration of primary structural elements. Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present

7 GOOD CONDITION - some minor problems. or scour may have removed substructure support. Unless closely monitored it may be necessary to close the structure until corrective action can be taken.

6 SATISFACTORY CONDITION - structural elements show some minor deterioration. 1 “IMMINENT” FAILURE CONDITION - major deterioration or section loss present in critical structural components or obvious vertical or horizontal 5 FAIR CONDITION - all primary structural elements are sound but may have movement affecting structure stability. Structure is closed to traffic but minor section loss, cracking, spalling, or scour. corrective action may return structure to light service.

4 POOR CONDITION - advanced section loss, deterioration, spalling, or scour. 0 FAILED CONDITION - out of service; beyond corrective action.
