Condition Assessment of Full-Scale Bridge Bents: The Forced-Vibration Technique
Recent research has been conducted at Utah State University regarding the effects of various states of damage on the dynamic characteristics of reinforced concrete bridge bents with the objective of evaluating forced vibration testing as a non-destructive condition assessment tool. The Utah Department of Transportation is currently involved in a very large and intense highway project, the redesign and reconstruction of the I-15 corridor through Salt Lake City. The primary access to downtown Salt Lake from I-15 was the 600 South viaduct. This viaduct was a 2-lane, elevated roadway constructed primarily of reinforced concrete. During demolition, three reinforced concrete bents were left standing and intact. These bents served as the research specimens.
