Abstract
ABSTRACT: Highway systems and their bridges have been adversely affected by age and weathering over the past two decades. The majority of highway bridges have reinforced concrete decks supported on steel or concrete girders. Rainwater and the application of de-icing chemicals to roadway surfaces during the winter months have penetrated through many concrete decks and caused corrosion of the reinforcing steel.
