Bridge deck membranes are used to prevent corrosion of reinforcing steel in bridge structures. Recent failures of the asphalt pavement overlaying these membranes prompted this study to evaluate the performance of waterproofing membranes. Test results proved inconclusive in this study. Field studies indicate that overlaying the membranes with four inches of asphalt pavement has helped prevent membrane failures.
The objective of this project is to define the current state-of-the-art regarding the use of bridge deck sealants and crack sealers to extend the life...
The objectives of this research were to characterize the material and bond properties of three commercially available glass fiber reinforced polymer (...
