STRUCTURE EVALUATION SUMMARY

This historic structure is in generally good condition, but has some issues that should be corrected to prevent the development of more serious problems and help ensure continued good service. Partial repointing of the masonry mortar joints was performed in 2006, but several portions of the piers and abutments remain in deteriorated condition, with water seepage through the mortar joints. In addition, some delaminated areas and minor transverse cracks exist in the latex-modified concrete wearing surface; these cracks should be sealed to prevent water intrusion. Other problems include deterioration of several timbers in the lower portions of the icebreakers. It should also be noted that the deck joints are filled with soil and debris, which can accelerate the deterioration of the joint material. These should be cleaned regularly to maintain their effectiveness.

The bridge has experienced several floods in recent years, including a 50-year flood in 2004, and 100-year floods in 2005 and 2006. Problems associated with the 2006 flood have mostly been addressed, with the exception of a bent hanger that was due to flood debris collision. The condition of this hanger will continue to be monitored during future inspections. In addition, it should be noted that settlement of the walkway off the northeast corner of the bridge has caused spalls at the joints, and up to 3" of subsidence at the transition to the mule path masonry paving. No appreciable damage has been noted as a consequence of the August 2011 earthquake.

It should be noted that the permanent canal trunk walls hinder snow removal and inspection/maintenance of the suspension system. Consideration should be given to retrofitting the walls with access panels to facilitate inspection and maintenance.

STRUCTURE SUMMARY STRUCTURE NO. 4870-001P

STRUCTURE EVALUATION SUMMARY CONTINUED

It should also be noted that the roadway drainage system for New York State Route 97 was recently reconstructed to divert roadway runoff away from the east approach. Consideration should be given to reconstruction of both approach pavements, utility boxes, and the storm water drainage systems to limit the amount of water infiltrating thru cracks and into the backfill, eventually weeping out through the abutment breastwall masonry joints.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND ESTIMATED COSTS STRUCTURE NO. 4870-001P

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.

FIELD INSPECTION REPORT STRUCTURE NO. 4870-001P

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.
