Project Schedule
1. Steel Multigirder Bridge
2. Drilled Shaft Foundations at Abutments
3. Drilled Shaft Foundations at Tall Piers
4. Class HP Concrete for substructures

Proposal Assumptions
9
Proposal criteria for drilled shafts: • 60 psi friction• 10 tsf end bearing
Design criteria for drilled shafts after ATL borings: • 40 psi friction • 1.5 tsf end bearing
Impact on drilled shafts compared to proposal design: • Too many• Too deep • Too expensive
Back to the drawing board:• Change drilled shafts to steel piles at piers• Change to spread footing with keyway at abutments

D/B Savings $5,902,285
Presentation Take-aways
1) WHAT METHODS ARE USED TO PREVENT HIGH TEMPERATURES AND TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIALS IN MASS CONCRETE?
• MIX DESIGN• COLD WATER/ICE IN MIX• INSULATE CONCRETE SURFACE AND REBAR• COOLING PIPES/VENTS
PDH Questions
2) WHY WAS THE WEB THICKNESS OF THE GIRDERS ABLE TO BE REDUCED?
WEB STIFFENERS AT LESS THAN 3*D SPACING.
PDH Questions
3) WHY WERE THE WEATHERING STEEL GIRDERS METALIZED?
• EXTRA PROTECTION AT JOINTS• SPRAY ON HIGH BRIDGES• CURBLESS CROSS-SECTION WITH DEEP GIRDERS
PDH Questions
4) WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE STIFFENING TRUSS DURING ERECTION
A. LIMIT VERTICAL DEFLECTION FOR LONG SPANSB. ALLOW FOR A HIGHER SAFE WIND SPEEDC. INCREASE LATERAL STIFFNESS OF THE COMPRESSION FLANGED. ALL OF THE ABOVE

RDX Explosives:• Research Development Explosive – Pre WWII• Used in depth charges to puncture German U-boats
(steel)• More “punch” than TNT
• Dynamite = slow charge for cratering earth
• Linear shaped charges – focus energy to cut steel• Primed with a non-electric blasting cap & detonating cord• Synchronized with 9ms delays to minimize over pressure• Sequence:
• Drop center span out• Cut superstructure on each side of pier• Cut superstructure at ends• Cut pier bases and kick inward
