Quantification of Cracks in Concrete Bridge Decks in Ohio District 3. Executive Summary Report
Some of the main reasons for the development of cracks in concrete bridge decks include low tensile strength of the concrete, intrinsic volumetric instability, or deleterious chemical reactions. Corrosion of the embedded steel reinforcement can occur in the interior of the concrete when cracks provide a means for ingress of hostile agents into the concrete. The development of cracks in various bridge decks is a severe problem not only in Ohio State, but also in the whole of the United States. It is important to understand the pattern and extent of crack development in bridge decks and quantify crack densities. Such quantification can aid in the identification of the causes, and devising appropriate counter measures to minimize cracking in future bridge constructions. The scope of this project is designed to determine whether structural slabs or stringer supported bridges have a higher tendency to develop cracks. All the bridges surveyed in this study are located in Ohio District 3.
