This paper identifies the unique steps taken to safely remove lead-based paint from a major highway/commuter railroad bridge connecting Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with Camden, New Jersey, followed by the application of a new long lasting protective coating system. The paper addresses project phasing by the owner and coordination with the commuter train to keep costs down and to minimize inconvenience to the public.
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) spends over $50 million in steel bridge fabrication and shop painting annually. According to a recent Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) sponsored study by Appleman, approximately 7% of the cost of a steel bridge is budgeted for blast cleaning and primer application in most shops. FDOT knows that proper surface preparation and primer application are the best ways to assure long-term corrosion protection.
