ITEM SPECIAL - PATCHING CONCRETE BRIDGE DECK OVERLAYS WITH MICRO-SILICA MODIFIED CONCRETE

Designer’s Note: Intended for use where spot patching of an existing concrete bridge deck overlay is performed instead of replacing the entire existing overlay. Micro-Silica Modified Concrete is used regardless of the composition of the existing concrete overlay.

This repair, as any patch, should be considered a short term fix. This fix is better than the use of cold patch or other asphalt material as the asphalt material gives the salt laden water a location to continue to pond on the concrete and help keep the corrosion process active.

Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 512

7/20/2007

Embankment Construction Using Recycled Materials

Designer Note: This note was written to safely use these recycled products without jeopardizing the embankment or pavement integrity or long-term performance. The Department does not require the use of

recycled materials because this specification does not eliminate all risk or liability to the

Department, it only minimizes such risks.  For complete note Click Here

Ultra Thin Bonded Asphalt Overlay

Designer Note: A This product is intended to be used for pavement preventive maintenance but may have other applications as well. B This product uses a high angularity aggregate to provide rut resistance. The product is gap graded to allow for more top size stone contact and to provide a higher binder content for durability. The emulsion prior to hot mix application provides sealing of the old surface and adhesion of the 5/8 inch hot mix gap graded layer. C The pavement on which this process is applied should be in suitable condition with few significant defects. In general, following the guidance of the Preventive Maintenance policy for application will suffice. D Do not crack seal within 1 year prior to constructing this item. E No special maintenance of traffic considerations.

Inspection and Compaction Testing of Unbound Materials 

Designer Note:  Use this note when construction personnel are limited and the District wants full time inspection and compaction testing for the work. Contact the District Construction Engineer before incorporating this note into the plans. SS 878 and 879 are very similar specifications. SS-878 pays for the inspection and compaction testing as a lump sum pay item and covers Items 203, 204, 205, 206, 304, 307, 411, 503, 603 and MSE wall select granular embankment. SS-879 pays for the work as an incentive pay to the contract. The Contractor would be more responsible for the work under 879 but SS-879 only covers Items 203 and 204.

Field Metalizing of Structural Steel with Warranty 

Designer Note: Include all pay items. SS845.14 specifies metallizing to all structural steel; scuppers; expansion joints except for the traveled surface; steel railing; exposed steel piling; drain troughs; and other areas to the contract limits. Carefully review these areas that are to be metallized and show the limits of the contract work. Show plan limits for areas that will need the metallizing 12 mils thick as specified in SS845.14. Suggested areas are as follows: all steel within 10 feet of any expansion joint devise or internal hinge assembly. All steel in the potential splash zone of a scupper, all exterior and bottom flange surfaces on bridges with over the side drainage. Fracture critical members or critical structural members that would benefit from additional corrosion protection. Areas that collect debris or have exhibited more aggressive patterns of corrosion as determined from inspection records. When estimating the quantity for Item 883 Surface Preparation of Structural Steel, with Warranty, calculate the area to be metallized according to 883.08.  When estimating the quantity for Item 883, Grinding Fins, Tears, Slivers on Structural Steel, provide 1 minute for each linear foot of beam/girder to be coated.  When estimating the quantity for Item 883 Field Metallizing of Structural Steel, with Warranty, calculate the area to be metallized according to 883.08.

QC/QA Concrete for Structures 

Designer Note:   This is a QC/QA specification for structure concrete.  It contains performance requirements and pay factors based on the test results reported by the contractor.  It was developed to replace Item 511, class C, S and HP concretes in structures.  Use class QSC1 for substructure concrete and QSC2 for superstructure components of the bridge.  See 898.02 for a definition of which components of the bridge are considered substructure and which are considered superstructure.  The design strengths and permeabilities are 4000 psi and 2000 coulombs respectively for QSC1; and  4500 psi  and 1500 coulombs for QSC2.   Use QSC3 only when special design strength criteria is used for the design of the structure.  Specify the required strength and permeabily in the plans and proposal item description. Do not use where warranty specifications are required.
