Concrete Bridge Deck Crack Sealing

R27-SP62 Concrete Bridge Deck Crack Sealing 3/31/2024 Concrete in a bridge deck is exposed to various conditions that make it prone to cracking such as loads from trucks, temperature variations and deicing chemicals. The aim of this project is to determine the appropriate crack sealer for various types of cracks in bridge decks. Researchers will create a guide for bridge maintenance engineers to assist with selecting the optimum crack sealer for each crack type. Effectively selecting crack sealers will allow engineers to seal cracks more cost-effectively as well as create more durable bridges.
