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

Designers 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

4/19/2002

ITEM SPECIAL - PATCHING CONCRETE BRIDGE DECKS

Designers Note: Intended for use where spot patching of an existing concrete bridge deck is performed instead of placing a new overlay over the entire existing deck. The method of patching must be selected from the note and included on the pay item description. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 514

6 MM (1/4") EPOXY WATERPROOFING OVERLAY FOR BRIDGE DECKS

Designers Note: Intended for use on an existing concrete bridge deck on which the existing surface finish has worn away to the point where there is insufficient skid resistance available and needs to be restored, or where an existing concrete deck is cracked to the point where waterproofing is necessary but where the additional deadload on the superstructure needs to be kept to an absolute minimum so that the bridges load rating is not significantly lowered, or both. This proposal note is not for use on any deck material (ex. timber) except for concrete. The proposal note, "Patching Concrete Bridge Decks" (proposal note 512), is referenced in this note and must be listed for inclusion in the contract documents. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 515

4/19/2002

TREATING CONCRETE BRIDGE DECKS WITH GRAVITY-FED RESIN

Designers Note: Intended for use on an existing concrete bridge deck which has cracked to the point where waterproofing is necessary but where the additional deadload on the superstructure needs to be kept to an absolute minimum. This is typically used on decks where the cracks are full depth. This is also often used on new decks that have experienced severe cracking from the onset. If looking for a long term fix, consideration should be first given to using a concrete overlay in lieu of this. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 522

5/22/1997

ITEM SPECIAL - CONCRETE REPAIR BY EPOXY INJECTION

Designers Note: Used whenever cracks in concrete members are to be repaired. Crack limitations are listed in the note and widths beyond those shown will require a different procedure to repair them. This is not to be used to seal cracks in concrete bridge decks. The use of this procedure to repair deck delaminations on the underside of a deck is strongly discouraged as its effectiveness and durability are unknown. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 523

4/19/2002

CONCRETE REPAIR USING PREPLACED AGGREGATE CONCRETE

Designers Note: Used when making repairs to existing concrete members that require formwork but the new concrete cannot be placed by traditional methods (chute, pumping, etc.) due to physical limitations that are imposed by the location of the repair area. This should only be used when it has been determined by the designer that the other repair methods discussed in the Bridge Design Manual are not appropriate for the project. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 525

8/2/2004

STEEL PRICE ADJUSTMENT

Designers Note:  For use on all projects that require steel of the types listed in the note

~ 527

11/7/1994

ITEM 515 - HIGH EARLY STRENGTH KEYWAY GROUT FOR PRESTRESSED/POST-TENSIONED CONCRETE MEMBERS

Designers Note: Standard Bridge Drawing PSBD-1-93, on sheet 1 of 4, requires that a different mortar be used when traffic (either construction or normal vehicle) will be on the beams within seven days of grout placement or when part-width construction is being used. Reference is made in the drawing to a proposal note for the specifications regarding the mortar to be used under these circumstances. Proposal Note 527 is the note that is referenced and must be included in the contract documents on all projects where the before mentioned standard bridge drawing is used. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 528

4/19/2002

ITEM SPECIAL - HEAT STRAIGHTENING OF DAMAGED STRUCTURAL STEEL

Designers Note: Used when heat straightening is to be used to straighten damaged portions of existing beams/girders. The damage can be either from vehicular (or load) impact or from construction activities. The note is geared towards vehicular impact. The locations needing repair need to be shown in the plans. The designer should note that the straightening of truss members requires special considerations and may require some additional plan details and/or notes. As far as specifying a best sequence of repair, since heat straightening is more of an "art", it is usually better to leave the actual sequence of repairs up to the Contractor and place a note in the plans requiring the Contractor to submit a detailed procedure for review and approval prior to the commencement of any work. The repair plans should show in detail the desired final end (finished) condition of the bridge. If a certain procedure or sequence is specified, it might limit the abilities of the Contractor. The proposal note "Concrete Repair By Epoxy Injection" (proposal note 522) is referenced in this note and must be listed for inclusion in the contract documents. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 530

4/19/2002

ITEM SPECIAL - STRUCTURAL SURVEY AND MONITORING OF VIBRATIONS

Designers Note: This note is used where there exists the potential of an existing structure being damaged by ground vibrations caused by certain construction activities that are performed in close proximity to the structure. Some activities that could possibly produce damaging vibrations are rock blasting and blasting for the purpose of removing an existing structure. While pile driving is often thought of as being a vibration problem (and this note has been used with pile driving on a few occasions), ODOT has found no vibrational damage to adjacent buildings, etc. due to pile driving. The note requires that a survey be conducted of the condition of the structures and the monitoring of ground vibrations by qualified personnel. This note is seldom used. The designer should contact the Office of Structural Engineering as to whether or not the note should be used on a specific project. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 531

4/19/2002

ITEM 511.11 ANTI-WASHOUT ADMIXTURE FOR UNDER WATER CONCRETING/GROUTING 

Designers Note: This note is only used when concrete is placed directly under water. This note is rarely used. It is not used in conjunction with the construction of drilled shafts. This note should not be automatically used by the designer since the placement of structural concrete under water is only allowed by permission of the Department. This note should only be used after consultation with and approval by the Office of Structural Engineering. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

~ 608

11/22/1994

ITEM 603, PIPE CULVERTS, SEWERS, DRAINS AND ITEM 638 WATER LINES UNDER RAILROAD

Ultra-Thin Whitetopping Overlay with Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Designer Note: For use on flexible pavements only, not composite.

Not for use on mainline interstate and interstate lookalikes.  Intended mainly for high stress locations as defined in the High Stress Guidelines, Pavement Design & Rehabilitation Manual, Appendix B.  Requires a strong base - the asphalt must be in good condition. Locations with potholes or medium or high severity wheel track cracking are not candidates for ultra-thin whitetopping.  Requires good edge support in the form of a concrete curb or concrete gutter or solid asphalt. Locations with edge cracking within about one foot of the edge of the overlay are not good candidates for ultra-thin whitetopping.  A minimum of 6 inches of asphalt is required below the ultra-thin whitetopping.

Fine Graded Polymer Asphalt Concrete 

Designer Note: These products are intended to be used for pavement preventive maintenance but may have other applications as well. 1 Type A mix is a very fine graded mix composed of primarily natural sand and contains a very high binder content. It is designed to give a very long life but generally is not for high truck situations. 2 Do not crack seal within 1 year prior to applying Type A. 3 Apply Type A at 5/8 inch lift. B Type B mix is a fine graded mix composed of more angular materials and contains less binder content than type A. It is designed to be more rut resistant than Type A but still contains a polymer binder for durability and ease of maintenance. Type B can be placed on medium and high volume roads, including most interstate applications. 1 Do not crack seal within 1 year prior to applying Type B.  Apply type B at 3/4 to 1 inch, in general.  C No special maintenance of traffic considerations. D Include SS908 for asphaltic cement.

Sealing of Concrete Surfaces     

Designer Note: This new Supplemental Specification 864, Sealing of Concrete Surfaces, replaces existing Proposal Note 516-84 by October 1, 2001. Used whenever concrete surfaces, either existing or new, are to be sealed. The limits of sealing are to be shown in the plans. The designer is allowed the option of either specifying a specific type (not brand) of sealer or leaving the choice up to the Contractor. The designer should coordinate this with the owner of the structure. The designer should be aware that the Bridge Design Manual has specific guidance as to which types of sealers are to be used and where their use is acceptable. Questions regarding this note should be directed to the Office of Structural Engineering at 614-466-3893.

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. F Requires inclusion of SS 902 for polymer emulsion.
