Dear Sir You have made every pertinent points about the specification of wearing coat and need for intermediate adoption of EN specifications during new construction. Bridge Deck is the least considered aspect even during the maintenance lifecycle and even escapes observation of those bridge inspectors who are not adequately trained. On inspection of bridge decks it is routinely found that the bituminous overly was done on approaches without scraping and later to compensate for the level difference additional layers were overlaid, thus increasing the dead weight. Yet another problem observed was the debonding of the 74 mm thick concrete wearing coat and a this water layer creeping below starting the deck deterioration. |
