Steel Girder Fracture on Delaware's I-95 Bridge over the Brandywine River
A significant crack was recently discovered on an I-95 bridge over the Brandywine River in Delaware. The steel girder bridge carries six lanes of traffic just north of downtown Wilmington. The crack was located on the fascia girder at midspan of the bridge's main span. The entire bottom flange was found to be fractured, with the crack extending upwards to within 0.3 meters of the upper flange. This paper will review the circumstances leading up to the crack, discuss the cause of the crack, review the repair strategy, and summarize the results of load tests performed prior to and during the repair.
