STRUCTURE EVALUATION SUMMARY

This steel multi-beam bridge is in fair condition overall, but is in need of rehabilitation and safety improvements. The structure is scheduled for rehabilitation in the near future under Project PRA-NAMA 502(5).

Problems noted include cracking, rust staining, and spalling with exposed rebar throughout the deck underside; minor to moderate deterioration of the asphalt wearing surface; and deterioration of the pier ornamental masonry blocks and mortar joints. In addition, the compression seal deck expansion joints are in poor condition, allowing water and roadway salts to infiltrate to the superstructure and substructure, exacerbating the deterioration.

There are also some railing issues present. The traffic railing exhibits rust spots, with areas of rust perforations (100% section loss) throughout. The concrete posts with metal railings on the outer sides of the bridge are disconnected at some locations, and are missing connection bolts in isolated locations.

It should be noted that the seawalls adjacent to this structure and around the Tidal Basin continue to deteriorate, exhibiting extensive mortar loss throughout the masonry mortar joints and numerous missing and displaced stones.

It should also be noted that the areas of erosion between the east wingwalls and adjacent seawalls have increased.

Further deterioration of these walls will likely lead to a loss of fill into the Tidal Basin, and may have a significant impact on the adjacent pedestrian walkways and hand railings throughout the site. Consideration should be given to developing a project to rehabilitate the seawalls.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND ESTIMATED COSTS STRUCTURE NO. 3400-032P

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.

REMARKS: This structure is scheduled for rehabilitation in the near future under Project PRA-NAMA 502(5).

FIELD INSPECTION REPORT STRUCTURE NO. 3400-032P

G = GOOD (CODES 7 - 9) F = FAIR (CODES 5 - 6) P = POOR (CODES 0 - 4)

CONDITION RATING CODE EQUIVALENTS FOR SUB-ELEMENTS

SERIOUS CONDITION - loss of section, deterioration, spalling, or scour have seriously affected primary structural components. Local failures are possible.

Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present.

CRITICAL CONDITION - advanced deterioration of primary structural elements. Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present or scour may have removed substructure support. Unless closely monitored it may be necessary to close the structure until corrective action can be taken.

“IMMINENT” FAILURE CONDITION - major deterioration or section loss present in critical structural components or obvious vertical or horizontal movement affecting structure stability. Structure is closed to traffic but corrective action may return structure to light service.

FAILED CONDITION - out of service; beyond corrective action.

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

NOT APPLICABLE

EXCELLENT CONDITION

VERY GOOD CONDITION - no problems noted.

GOOD CONDITION - some minor problems.

SATISFACTORY CONDITION - structural elements show some minor deterioration.

FAIR CONDITION - all primary structural elements are sound but may have minor section loss, cracking, spalling, or scour.

POOR CONDITION - advanced section loss, deterioration, spalling, or scour.
