Effect of Wood Preservatives on Stress-laminated Southern Pine Bridge Test Decks

Book Description
For wood to work successfully in external environments, it must be treated with chemical preservatives. This study determined the effect of various oil- and water-based preservatives on the performance of stress-laminated Southern Pine bridge decks. This 2Â-year study was limited to one species for the wood laminations and one type of stress laminated system. Nine half-width, full-length stress laminated test decks were constructed of Southern Pine lumber. Each test deck was treated with one of seven preservatives and outfitted with one of three bar anchorage types. Moisture content levels did not change significantly throughout the monitoring period, which implies that the wood had achieved moisture equilibrium prior to testing. According to this study, when Southern Pine stress laminated bridge decks are properly designed, (1) the anchorage system has a negligible effect on bar force retention and (2) water-based preservatives may be successfully used to treat these bridge decks. We recommend that the design guidelines currently available for stress-laminated decks treated with oil-based preservatives be extended to decks treated with water-based preservatives and constructed with any bar anchorage system. This recommendation is based on the similarity of the behavior of water- and oil-based preservatives in the stress-laminated test decks treated in this study.
