      <title>SPR-5012: Investigating FAST Act Legislation Requirements for Bridge Load Rating Considering Emergency Vehicles</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2700540</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The research aim is to understand the impact of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act combined with exemptions in Indiana code on load rating of bridges and to develop recommendations that comply with legislation while reducing staff burden. The FAST Act has resulted in emergency vehicle loads that must be considered for load rating of bridges. Due to exemptions in Indiana code, this requirement applies to interstate and noninterstate bridges, leading to the posting of 1,649 bridges, mostly maintained by local agencies. The focus will be on understanding the impact on locally maintained bridges and providing guidance on compliance.]]></description>

      <title>Development of a Real-Time Decision Support Framework for Resilient Bridge Infrastructure During Evolving Hazard Conditions
</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2696159</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Bridge infrastructure serves as a critical lifeline for transportation, emergency response, and economic continuity. In hazard-prone regions such as Florida, bridges face escalating risks from floods, hurricanes, and wildfires that can rapidly disrupt traffic flow and delay emergency operations. Existing bridge management systems primarily focus on long-term planning and condition assessment, offering limited capability for real-time decision-making during evolving hazard events. This project aims to develop a real-time decision support framework that enables dynamic management of bridge infrastructure under active hazard conditions. The proposed framework will integrate real-time hazard forecasts, sensor-based condition monitoring, and infrastructure performance data to guide rapid, data driven decisions. Using advanced analytics and scenario modeling, the system will support time-sensitive operational actions such as rerouting, temporary reinforcement, and emergency closures. A visual decision-support interface will convey hazard progression, bridge condition, and recommended response strategies to transportation agencies and emergency managers in an intuitive, spatially enabled format. Building upon prior work at Florida A&M University on the IntelliViz prioritization platform, this research extends the concept from long term resilience planning to operational support. A regional case study in Florida will demonstrate the practical implementation of the framework and its benefits for improving coordination, minimizing downtime, and enhancing public safety during flood and hurricane events. By integrating real-time data streams with predictive modeling and visualization tools, the project will bridge the gap between static risk assessment and dynamic hazard response, providing a scalable and implementable framework for strengthening transportation resilience and supporting informed, timely decisions during extreme events.]]></description>

      <title>ViewBridgeInEnvironments: A Holistic, Context-Aware Approach to Bridge
Assessment Using Computer Vision Segmentation Technologies</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2696156</link>
      <description><![CDATA[ViewBridgeInEnvironments introduces a pioneering framework that integrates environmental factors and contexts into bridge assessment, leveraging advanced panoptic segmentation technologies, while also incorporating the latest computer vision (CV) methods beyond segmentation. Traditional bridge inspections focus primarily on structural integrity, often overlooking the surrounding natural and manmade environments that can influence deterioration, accessibility, and safety. This framework addresses that gap by capturing comprehensive visual data from both bridge structures and their environments, enabling a holistic understanding of bridge health and the interactions between structural elements and surrounding conditions. By incorporating CV-based models, the framework produces interpretable outputs such as binary masks and quantified features, which support actionable decision making in bridge monitoring, maintenance, and management. The approach allows for simultaneous assessment of structural and environmental conditions, providing insight into potential vulnerabilities caused by adjacent terrain, vegetation, hydrological factors, and nearby infrastructure. Through these analyses, transportation agencies can identify risks, prioritize interventions, and allocate resources more effectively to enhance bridge safety and functionality. ViewBridgeInEnvironments is designed to leverage low-cost, widely accessible data collection technologies, including imagery from cell phones, cameras, and affordable drones, making it practical for both state-managed and locally owned bridges. The framework is scalable and adaptable, capable of being applied across diverse geographic regions and bridge types, including those in rural or hard-to access areas where traditional inspection is challenging. While erosion is one example of a feature that can be monitored, the framework is not limited to this, and the project will identify additional key features for comprehensive bridge assessment. By integrating structural evaluation with environmental context, ViewBridgeInEnvironments enables bridge owners and agencies to make timely, informed decisions, supporting resilient, safe, and sustainable infrastructure. The project represents a significant advancement in applying computer vision and panoptic segmentation to civil infrastructure, combining precision, environmental awareness, and practical deployment to enhance bridge monitoring and management.]]></description>

      <title>Risk Assessment of Bridge Substructure due to Scour and Seasonal Moisture Variations
</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2696152</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Changes in flooding patterns, temperature extremes, and soil moisture cycles are intensifying the environmental loads acting on bridge infrastructure. These changes often result in more frequent and severe hydrologic events, potentially heightened vulnerability to structural failure of bridges. Scour, the erosion of soil around bridge piers and abutments due to increased streamflow during heavy rainfall, is a leading cause of hydraulic-related bridge failures. Similarly, soil moisture variability caused by extreme temperature and precipitation swings can compromise pile capacity, as soil stiffness decreases significantly under saturated conditions. These issues are particularly critical for Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) projects, where rapid construction methods must ensure longterm performance and resilience. Scour and soil moisture variations can accelerate foundation deterioration, compromising the integrity and safety of ABC bridges. Therefore, the proposed study aims to incorporate hydraulic hazard effects into the assessment of bridge substructure performance. Specifically, it will develop a comprehensive understanding of how the increasing frequency and intensity of hydraulic events influence bridge vulnerability, particularly the risk of damage caused by scour and seasonal variations in soil moisture. The research team will evaluate multiple Global Climate Models (GCMs) using different Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios to project future temperature and precipitation trends at selected study locations. Hydrologic modeling tools will be used to develop calibrated streamflow models using historical datasets of precipitation, temperature, and flow rates. Also, scouring depths at bridge foundations will be estimated following the HEC-18 procedures. These outputs will be integrated into a finite-difference model to study how scour and variations in soil moisture affect the lateral load behavior of bridge piles. The results will quantify failure probabilities, providing a comprehensive understanding of bridge resilience under changing hydraulic hazard conditions.]]></description>

      <title>Integrating Temporary Bridges into Maintenance and Modernization Strategies of Bridge Infrastructure Assets</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2696148</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Temporary bridges are critical lifelines built to ensure continuity of service during
major renovation projects of ordinary bridges or following natural disaster
emergencies. Differently from ordinary bridges, which are expected to be in
service for 75 years, these structures have a service life of 5 years. In a time in
which investments in existing bridge maintenance and repair are expected to
increase by 58%, from $14.4 billion annually to $22.7 billion annually (ASCE,
2021), it is essential to plan investments on a risk-informed basis. Establishing a
methodology to conduct performance-based and cost-effective designs of
systems with a short service life is fundamental to properly inform the
management of large assets, where overdesigns at a large scale would lead to
uneconomical solutions. Nevertheless, to date, a nationwide consensus on the
most appropriate hazard level to adopt nationwide for the seismic design of
temporary structures is yet to be established. This project will build upon previous research of the PI supported by the California Department of Transportation (Petrone et al., 2025; Kashizadeh et al., 2025a; Kashizadeh et al., 2025b), which provided recommendations for the design of temporary bridges employing light superstructure in California. This research will substantially broaden the scope, by carrying out suites of risk analyses on a wide range of bridge typologies employed by the Departments of Transportation across the nation, for different site conditions, and levels of seismicity. Collectively, this effort will offer a robust performance-based and risk-informed foundation for updating current design provisions for temporary bridges, an often overlooked yet critical component of resilient transportation networks. In a broader sense, the methodologies developed through this project will go beyond the design of temporary bridges and be applicable to other short-service life infrastructure systems, expanding relevance and applicability of this research.]]></description>

      <title>Anchorage Design and Detailing for Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix Retrofits of Transportation Concrete Structures</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2691724</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The repair and rehabilitation of transportation structures is urgently needed to restore structural capacity, slow deterioration caused by aging, overloading, and environmental stressors, and minimize disruptions associated with large-scale replacement projects. State DOTs and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) have implemented several advanced rehabilitation techniques, including fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, ultra-high-performance concrete, and fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems. FRCM consists of an open-grid textile made of FRP or steel strands embedded within an inorganic cementitious matrix. The system offers multiple advantages over traditional FRP, including mechanical compatibility with concrete and masonry substrates, improved fire and elevated-temperature performance, vapor permeability, durability in moist or cold environments, and ease of application in field conditions.

As an externally bonded strengthening system, the performance of FRCM is governed by the ability of the FRCM–substrate interface to maintain composite action and to transfer forces effectively. Premature interfacial slip, end debonding, or localized interface damage are commonly reported for unanchored FRCM systems. These brittle failure modes often occur at loads far below the tensile capacity of the textile, limiting the effectiveness of the strengthening system to 30–60% of its potential and undermining both safety and return on investment. Introducing anchorage mechanisms into FRCM systems provides an engineered means to restrain interfacial slip, delay debonding, promote more favorable failure modes, and enable the textile to mobilize higher tensile strains. However, the existing literature on FRCM anchorage is sparse, fragmented, and lacking in unified, design-oriented guidance. Quantitative provisions addressing anchor geometry, capacity, and interaction with the primary FRCM reinforcement remain absent from current codes and standards.

The primary objective of this research is to advance the understanding, design, and implementation of anchorage systems for FRCM-strengthened concrete members, with the goal of mitigating premature debonding and achieving ductile, and efficient strengthening outcomes. Specifically, the project aims to: (a) synthesize and critically evaluate the current state of knowledge on FRCM anchorage; (b) develop and experimentally validate practical anchorage systems including transverse wraps, mechanical anchors, and spike anchors; and (c) produce a design-oriented framework for selecting, proportioning, and detailing anchorage systems.

Two coordinated experimental programs are proposed: (1) bond-level tests to characterize the effects of anchorage presence and type on joint force transfer, slip response, and failure mechanisms; and (2) flexural tests on reinforced concrete beams strengthened with anchored and unanchored FRCM reinforcement, to evaluate the translation of bond-level behavior to member-level performance and to verify design expressions under combined shear and normal stresses. The proposed research will equip state DOTs with validated anchorage solutions, support cost-effective preservation strategies, and accelerate the adoption of durable composite materials for extending the service life of transportation infrastructure.]]></description>

      <title>Advancing Rail Infrastructure Asset Management and Hazard Mitigation: Educational Tools and Practitioner Decision Support Systems</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2691664</link>
      <description><![CDATA[As rail infrastructure ages and faces intensifying system stressors (e.g., flooding, icing, and extreme heat), agencies need to identify pathways to enhance the durability and operational reliability of their physical assets. However, there is a significant gap in available training material regarding Rail Infrastructure Asset Management (IAM) for both university students and current practitioners. Building upon the researcher’s ongoing research into adaptive capacity and international rail best practices, this project will translate rigorous research findings into accessible educational and research tools and practical decision-support systems. The project focuses on three primary technology transfer and workforce development initiatives:


(1) Interactive Rail Asset Management Platform: The team will develop a web-based, interactive learning module (utilizing platforms such as Tigyog) targeting students and practitioners. This resource will cover the principles of IAM, condition assessment, and decision-making under uncertainty. It will feature "gamified" scenarios and narrative case studies drawn from the team's research, contrasting infrastructure failures (e.g., the East Palestine, Ohio derailment) with successful engineering adaptations (e.g., the Shinkansen automatic braking systems in Japan). Users will engage with a "build-your-own" asset management framework to apply these concepts in real-time.
(2) University Teaching Packets: To address the lack of specialized rail engineering curricula, the team will create comprehensive teaching modules for instructors. These packets will draw from the team's six-country comparative analysis (U.S., Australia, Spain, Japan, Ghana, Argentina), providing lecture slides, assignment materials, and case-study evaluations. Topics will focus on identifying key asset vulnerabilities, institutional barriers to maintenance, and successful infrastructure hardening strategies.
(3) Practitioner Decision Matrix: The team will develop a "Rail Hazard Mitigation Decision Matrix" for state agencies and rail operators.

This tool will synthesize data on geographic hazards, system ownership models, and cost-benefit ratios to help managers prioritize physical infrastructure improvements.]]></description>

      <title>Evaluation of Cement-Based Pavement Markings</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2689760</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Pavement markings provide continuous safety information to roadway users related to the roadway alignment, vehicle positioning, and other important driving-related tasks. During nighttime hours on many roadways, pavement markings are the only roadway asset to guide and regulate traffic, and their visibility becomes even more critical during nighttime wet conditions. Additionally, today pavement markings must be visible not only to human drivers but also to the machine vision technology of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) common in many vehicles.
For these reasons, it is important that pavement markings are performing well and are both durable and retroreflective (provide nighttime visibility) to aid with safe roadway navigation. However, there are many factors that can affect pavement marking performance, such as the environment, traffic, and winter maintenance practices. The Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) experiences significant challenges with all of these factors. Vermont’s climate, which has low winter temperatures and harsh freeze-thaw cycles, places considerable strain on a pavement marking material’s capacity to remain bonded to the pavement surface. The repeated freeze-thaw cycles have caused marking materials to crack or peel. The tire abrasion from high traffic volumes, especially heavy truck traffic, accelerates wear on pavement markings, and winter maintenance practices, particularly in northern states like Vermont, significantly impact the longevity and effectiveness of pavement markings. The frequent mechanical abrasion from snowplows accelerates marking degradation, and deicing agents cause chemical degradation such as fading, stripping, and surface damage.
Besides the potential safety risks to roadway travelers, there are other consequences for rapidly deteriorating pavement markings. The financial costs to VTrans for frequently replacing markings can be significant. Costs include not only the material, equipment, and labor for installation, but also the administrative costs for programming and managing striping contracts, as well as indirect economic costs for disruption to traffic. The traffic disruption can also have a negative impact on the traveling public, such as traffic congestion, delays, and driver frustration.
However, a relatively new pavement marking material, a polymer modified cement pavement marking called Enduramark, has a high potential for being more durable than most other marking materials. The cement-based marking has performed well for over three years in heavy snowplow environments. With a longer service life, it also has the potential for having a highly competitive annualized cost. The purpose of this study is to conduct a measured evaluation of the Enduramark’s performance on VTrans roadways, determine an estimated service life, and from the service life calculate the material’s annualized cost. The study will support the Agency’s Strategic Plan Goal 2: Grow Vermont’s economy by providing a safe, reliable, and efficient transportation system in a state of good repair.]]></description>

      <title>Successful Strategies in Providing Training Programs for State and Local Equipment Technicians</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2681233</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Fleet managers across surface transportation agencies face ongoing challenges in identifying training needs for fleet maintenance technicians and delivering effective programs. Prior to 2020, many states relied heavily on vendor-led training to support technician development on new and existing equipment. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, a number of vendors reduced or discontinued these offerings, requiring agencies to pursue alternative approaches.

As fleet equipment continues to incorporate more advanced technologies, the need for consistent, high-quality, and up-to-date technical training has become increasingly critical to maintaining safe, reliable, and cost-effective operations.

OBJECTIVE: This scan will examine organizations that have successfully identified and implemented sustainable training programs for fleet maintenance technicians. The team will document how agencies structure and manage their programs, measure effectiveness, and ensure appropriate leadership support.]]></description>

      <title>Successful Strategies to Integrate Digital Technologies to Achieve Data Interoperability Across the Lifecycle of Transportation Assets</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2681238</link>
      <description><![CDATA[State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) are adopting digital processes to improve project delivery and asset management. Federal initiatives such as the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Everyday Counts (EDC) program—including EDC-4 and EDC-6—have supported these efforts.

The Advanced Digital Construction Management Systems (ADCMS) grant program (FY 2022–2024) provided funding for DOTs to implement and pilot digital approaches that connect data from planning through maintenance. These efforts aim to maintain accurate, consistent asset information throughout the asset lifecycle.

DOTs are at varying stages of implementation and use different tools and approaches, but share a common goal of improving data interoperability. A scan of current practices—including data workflows, system integration, and data repository management—would provide useful insights for agencies nationwide.

The scan is expected to identify key insights in areas such as: (1) digital technologies and lifecycle processes across the asset lifecycle; (2) integration with enterprise systems; (3) core data elements and IT requirements; (4) change management and workforce development; (5) data visualization and performance dashboards; (6) incentives and challenges related to technology adoption; and (7) implementation approaches and alignment with agency policies.

Findings will provide practical guidance for construction and maintenance staff, engineering managers, executive leaders, and other decision-makers. The scan will compare successful strategies, identify approaches that support efficient digital adoption, and promote consistent, high-quality data practices across projects and agencies.]]></description>
