Implementation of Polymer Impregnation as a Bridge Deck Sealant

摘要

The surface treatment procedure for partially polymer impregnating concrete bridge decks is refined and evaluated on eight full-size highway bridges in various geographical locations over a period of 8 years. Data concerning the costs of bridge deck impregnation are included. An extensive series of chloride ion intrusion tests were performed and results are reported. An appendix containing the most recent surface impregnation construction specifications is included.
