Implementation of Bridge Preservation Actions

Research was performed under NCHRP Project 14-36, “Proposed AASHTO Guide for Bridge Preservation Actions,” to support the development of bridge and deck preservation guides. The research was based on data collected from representative agencies and includes (1) catalogs of bridge element preservation actions and (2) the criteria and selection methods of bridge preservation actions with associated costs and benefits for use in life cycle cost analysis and possible integration into a bridge management system. The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Committee on Bridges and Structures balloted and passed for adoption two guides: (1) Guide to Bridge Preservation Actions (published July 2021) (2) Guide to Preservation of Highway Bridge Decks (pending publication) The objective of this implementation project is to hold workshops for state departments of transportation (DOTs) and local public agencies to support the implementation of bridge preservation practices, as outlined in the following AASHTO guides: (1) Guide to Bridge Preservation Actions (published July 2021) (2) Guide to Preservation of Highway Bridge Decks (pending publication)
