Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramic coating was investigated in various environments such as inland, beach and salt-fog exposure. After 8-month outdoor testing, the coating was evaluated by visual inspection, coating thickness, adhesion measurement and X-ray diffraction. Long term testing ensued, up to 24 months.

This paper describes a bridge coating operation and maintenance manual that was developed for the City of Vancouver which operates and maintains an inventory of 33 bridges with coated steel elements.
This paper discusses the material selection, fabrication, and construction of Virginia’s first corrosion resistant ASTM A1010 plate girder bridge.
Thermal Diffusion Galvanizing (TDG) coating was investigated with and without various recommended topcoats for both short and long-term exposure. The samples were exposed in outdoor test condition for up to 45 months.
A five-year coatings research project was initiated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation in 1986 to evaluate the performance of an organic zinc rich coating system. The coating system consisted of a moisture cured urethane zinc rich primer, an epoxy intermediate, and an aliphatic polyester urethane finish coat. The system was applied to the Windgap Bridge located in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania (near the City of Pittsburgh) in 1986 and 1987.
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 aim of this case study is to identify the challenges of blasting a large bridge, blasting at long distances from equipment, and painting on a maintenance program vs the whole bridge. Then we provide recommendations and suggestions how to make it profitable, based on real-life project experience.
The Sunshine Skyway Cable Stay Bridge is the signature bridge in the State of Florida. During 2004 the decision was made to repaint the stay cables for corrosion protection and aesthetic issues. The authors participated in a coatings condition assessment, plan development for refurbishing the coating system, and project execution. This paper identifies areas that made the Sunshine Skyway Bridge a challenging project such as: coatings condition assessment, paint specifications, access, containment system, execution, and final acceptance.
As an island nation, Japan is particularly dependent on the good health of its bridges to connect its different regions for commercial activities. In order to reduce maintenance cost and downtime for bridges, Japanese road authorities have looked to the use of longer lasting premium materials of construction.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) with KTA-Tator, Inc. (KTA) conducted a one-day seminar on Bridge Maintenance Painting Strategy & Project Design in May 2013. One outcome of that seminar was the realization that MnDOT needed a more uniform method to rate the condition of coatings statewide during the biennial bridge safety inspections and a process to select and prioritize maintenance painting strategies. MnDOT assembled a Technical Advisory Panel to address these needs and launched a multi-objective study from October 2013 through June 2014.
RARELY SEEN RESEARCH: Bridges: A Look Back—Historic Studies in Cathodic Protection: The 1990s, is a companion book to Bridges: A Look Back—Case Studies in Cathodic Protection: Substructures and Bridges: A Look Back—Case Studies in Cathodic Protection: Superstructures, both of which consist of nearly 30 years of curated legacy NACE technical papers and journal articles that cover exactly what the titles suggest.
This book consists of edited case histories, while the two original titles are compiled of the original, unabridged technical papers and journal articles.
