Book Description
Road and bridge networks in OECD countries are ageing and substantial funds are needed for repair and rehabilitation. Underwater or underground damage to bridge substructures is often invisible, inaccessible, and hard to assess. A variety of measures and technologies for bridge substructures has proven practically effective despite difficult geological and environmental conditions. This report catalogs actual damage and defects of bridge substructures and provides several examples of inspection, repair, and strengthening technologies. It proposes measures to protect investment capital while insuring low operational costs. It is a resource book for policy makers and administrators responsible for bridge management.
