Observations on Damages to
the Bridge
The foundation and the substructure of the bridge
appeared to be in good working condition while
superstructure parts were in severely distressed
condition.
Due to progressive deterioration, the following defects
were noticed in the superstructure and bearings which
affected the serviceability/durability of the bridge.
The observations made on distress for span no.3 (P2-P3)
are as under:
Bearings:- The bearing (Rocker and Roller types) of span P2-P3
was badly damaged and found unserviceable. At P3 upstream side
the roller bearing was tilted form its original position while at
downstream side the bearing was shifted from their original location.

Observations on Damages to
the Bridge (Contd..)
Main Girder and Diaphragm beam- At several
portions leaching, spalling of concrete, exposed and
corroded reinforcement, inadequate cover, honey comb
and cracks were observed.
Bottom slab- Mainly in cantilever portion exposed and
corrugated reinforcement, honey comb, inadequate
cover observed.
Top slab- Leaching and cracks were observed in some
portions of top surface of slab.
Drainage spout- The length of drainage spout was very
small and it was not designed properly and maintained.
Therefore the functioning of spouts was almost nil.

Repairs of Superstructure
(Contd..)
Bottom slab- Repair of bottom slab was done by low
permeability polymer modified cementious mortar for
inadequate cover.
Top slab- Polymer cement grout has been applied at top of slab.
Drainage spout- Vertically upright new drainage spout with
longer length has been provided in all spans in one side due to
uni camber profile (slope).
Expansion joint- Replaced all asphaltic expansion joint by new
strip seal expansion joints.
Cement concrete wearing- Removed damaged existing C.C.
wearing coarse and replacement it with mastic asphalt wearing
course after maintaining the proper slope for drainage.
Kerb beam and parapet wall- Existing parapet wall was
demolished and holes drilled in concrete, fixed reinforced in hole
with lock fix and constructed new crash barrier.

Methodology (Contd..)
Polymer Cement grouting was done in the pier cap below the
bearings as severe honey combing in some of the pier caps was
observed.
Provided steel plate strengthening to the end diaphragm beams by
providing 8 mm plate on either side of the diaphragm beam and 16
mm plate at the bottom of the diaphragm beam. The side plates
were fixed by drilling through holes in the Diaphragm beam and
fixing by bolts.
The gap between the steel plate and diaphragm beam was filled up
using polymer cement injection grouting.
Now fixed 5 nos. Hydraulic jacks at pier P3 and mechanically jacks
were suitably placed between hydraulic jacks. All the jacks to be
placed below the diaphragm beams. Set of 3 hydraulic jacks was
connected to a single power pack. lifting process was commenced
by operating all the 5 jacks and simultaneously tightened the
hydraulic jacks. The lifting was done for a minimum height of 60 mm

Methodology:
The existing damaged expansion joint shall be removed and
replaced with new single strip seal joints and compression seal
joints depending on span length and required movement.
The bituminous / R.C.C / P.C.C wearing coat upto deck level and
R.C.C deck slab shall be dismantled to the area required for
removing the existing expansion joints and installation of new
expansion joints. The expansion joint and adjoining structural
concrete shall be cleaned of all dust, loose material, muck and
any deleterious material.
If the depth of existing wearing coat is more than that required
for fixing the new expansion joints, the excess depth below in
the above recess is also to be filled with concrete of M-35 grade
by providing new reinforcement of H.Y.S.D bars with proper
development length with existing deck slab reinforcement.
