• 2 Parallel 3 Span Type VI Bulb Tee bridges.• Concrete girders weigh approximately 100 tons

each.– CSX RR which requires 150% lifting capacity for the

cranes.– Disallows “walking beams” meaning numerous cranes

would be required with significant boom capacity.

• 5 Girders in place of 6 Girders.• Substructure remained unchanged.• Plate girders weigh approximately 12 tons.• First bridge scheduled delivery October 2016 (4 months).• Redesign saved approximately $200,000.

Economical Corrosion Protection

Uncoated Weathering Steel

14 l   www.steelbridges.org14 | www.steelbridges.org

UWS - How it Works

• Steel rusts in the presence of air and water resulting in iron oxide.

• Control rate oxygen can react with the surface. • Non-Weathering Steel

– Relatively porous oxide layer, which can hold moisture and promote further corrosion.

– Rust layer delaminates and exposes the surface causing more damage.

• Weathering Steel– Not as porous because it adheres more firmly to

the base metal. – Rate of corrosion initially same as ordinary steel,

but levels out.

UWS - Preventing Staining

• Design Strategy - Partial Paint (Last Resort)– Increased lifecycle costs associated with maintaining

paint.– Paint failure will result in staining if not addressed

quickly.– Consider periodic surface blasting of any staining as a

better option than painting.

UWS – First Time Costs

• Material premium of 3 - 4 cents/pound.• 10% - 18% lower first time cost versus painting.• Net costs favors Weathering Steel.

• Additional savings over the life of the bridge.

31 l   www.steelbridges.org31 | www.steelbridges.org

• Always consider making weathering steel the first option.

• Incorporate strategies for controlling water and moisture.

• Paint only fascia if aesthetic are important.
