Evaluation of Bridge Deck Cathodic Protection
This report presents the results of the evaluation of cathodic protection systems installed on Interstate Route 80 in 1988. Both the titanium mesh anode and mounded conductive polymer systems have performed satisfactorily and are preventing further deterioriation of the concrete from reinforcing steel corrosion. The titanium mesh anode exhibits the best overall performance of the systems under test. Based on the findings in this study, results of the recent national effort by the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP-S-337), and favorable reports by other users, it is recommended that cathodic protection be adopted as an alternate bridge deck rehabilitation method by the Department. Future Department installations should incorporate guidelines provided in the AASHTO-AGC-ARTBA Task Force No. 29 publication, 'Guide Specification for Cathodic Protection of Concrete Bridge Decks'. SHRP(sup 5,6) and the recommendations given in this report.
