SESSION 2.1

Featured Region Overview

Michael Martello, PE Michele Fiorillo, PE Sr. Structural Engineer Geotechnical Department Manager T. Y. Lin International Terracon Consultants - NY 255 East Ave. michele.fiorillo@terracon.com Rochester, NY 14604 michael.martello@tylin.com

Synopsis:

This project was performed to ensure the continued safety and operational efficiency of Interstate 690 in Syracuse, NY. The project involved reconstructing a ¾ mile section of highway including the replacement of a 1,500-foot viaduct spanning Beech Street and extending to Teall Avenue; replacement of the bridge over Teall Avenue; and improvements to Exit 14 at Teall Avenue. There were structural deficiencies identified along the viaduct which called for its rehabilitation or replacement. Ongoing maintenance operations to perform short-term repairs to this structure had resulted in lane closures that negatively impacted traffic operation. There were also non-standard and nonconforming geometric design features, including reduced sight distance, ramp geometry deficiencies, narrow shoulders, and inadequate bridge railing identified in this area. The project was a candidate for Design-Build due to the scope of work required and the desire to make improvements as soon as possible.

NYSDOT issued a Request for Qualifications, followed by a Request for Proposals to short-listed firms. The Crane-Hogan Design Build Team was selected and awarded a Best Value Contract. In order to eliminate the viaduct, the proposal design was based in installation of Controlled Modulus Columns (CMCs) - also known as rigid inclusions - to provide soil strengthening and ground stabilization. This would allow about a 20-foot tall highway embankment with MSE walls to be constructed and elimination of the viaduct. The designers chose to design the Beech Street Bridge utilizing NEXT Beams (Type D) and design of the Teall Avenue Bridge utilizing Bulb Tee beams. In addition to bringing I-690 up to current standards, the project required replacement of all highway signs, reconstruction and improvements to Teall Avenue, installation of new traffic signals, Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) improvements, aesthetic treatments, and a reduction in stormwater run-off and water quality improvements for flow entering the City of Syracuse’s combined sewer system.

SESSION 2.2

Damages and Restoration

Robert Rugg, PE Regional Construction Supervisor NYSDOT Region 3 333 E. Washington St Syracuse, NY 13202 robert.rugg@dot.ny.gov

Synopsis: This presentation will cover the Accelerated Bridge Deck work that occurred during the summer of 2016 which replaced 3 bridge decks on I-690 in the city of Syracuse under a full closure of the I-690 EB expressway. This work employed incentive/disincentive clauses and the work was completed in 8 days using an accelerated 18-hour mix (3000 PSI at 18 hours). General format of the presentation will be as follows:

- Review the need to use accelerated bridge deck construction (I-81 viaduct project is coming along which will replace these bridges in approximately the next 10 years – bridge decks are deteriorating, but we need to reduce inconvenience to the public while not requiring typical bridge deck service life).

- Review contract clauses, special specification for accelerated concrete and touch on the detour/public outreach efforts.

- Discuss accelerated mixes and their benefits and drawbacks. - Go through slides of the work from old deck removal to reopening of I-690. - Discuss lessons learned, difficulties encountered, and observations.

Asif Ahmed, Ph.D. Assistant Professor College of Engineering SUNY Polytechnic Institute 100 Seymour Road Utica, NY 13502 asif.amed@sunyit.edu

Synopsis: Moderate (3H: 1V) to steep (2.5H: 1V) slopes and embankments underlain by expansive clayey soils are susceptible to shallow land sliding during intense and prolonged rainfall events. These failures are predominant across the nation and cause significant maintenance problems for the corresponding Department of Transportation (DOT). The Recycled Plastic Pin (RPP) has potential to be utilized in slope stabilization as a remedial measure of shallow slope failure. The objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of spacing and length of RPP over the factor of safety using Finite Element method (FEM). The analysis was conducted using 2D FEM software package PLAXIS 2D and factor of safety of the slope was determined using the strength reduction technique. A highway slope constructed using high plastic clayey soil, located over US 287 near St. Paul overpass in Midlothian, Texas was selected as reference slope. The strength of the slope was back analyzed using PLAXIS 2D at factor of safety equals to unity. As a remediation technique, RPP was selected for the slope stabilization and the slope was analyzed with different lengths (2.44 m to 3.65 m, 8 ft to 12 ft) and spacing (0.61 m c/c to 2.44 m c/c, 3 ft c/c to 8 ft c/c) of RPP. The FEM results indicated that RPP provided resistance against the shallow failure and resulted increment in factor of safety by shifting the failure plane to a deeper depth toward deep seated failure. In addition, the factor of safety increased with the increment in RPP length as higher resistance was observed from the foundation soil. After successful implementation of RPP in one single site, several other sites were fixed with the same technique and the results are satisfactory to date. About the Presenter: Asif Ahmed is currently Assistant Professor in SUNY Polytechnic Institute. After completing his PhD from University of Texas at Arlington, Dr. Ahmed continued for couple of semesters as Research Assistant Professor in same institution prior joining SUNY Poly in Fall 2018. Funded by Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) during doctoral, his research works include but not limited to unsaturated soil mechanics, modeling soil behavior, slope stability, pavement distress, real time data

William Horne, P.E. President NDT Corporation 153 Clinton Road Sterling, Massachusetts 01564 bhorne@ndtcorporation.com

Synopsis: Cost effective and efficient design/repair strategies continue to be a top priority for all owners of our nation’s infrastructure. Bridges large and small are at the forefront of this expectation and according to conditional assessments based on the required biennial bridge inspections, many are in critical need of repairs. Engineers are well schooled in visual observation techniques and physical measurements to determine/assess the deterioration of bridge superstructures and substructures. Often these methods are not sufficient to fully assess the integrity of these members. Utilizing nondestructive testing techniques allows for a comprehensive inspection which produces a cost-effective repair strategy for bridge owners. An example of where this process recently yielded valuable information was for Tioga County in the southern tier at BIN 2218720 Harnick Road over Apalachin Creek. An inspection of the steel H pile pier/bent supporting this 2-span bridge resulted in a “Red Structural Flag. The field inspection and Red flag condition report documented perforations in the flanges and web of the piles at the lower area just above the riverbed. Tioga County engaged Delta Engineers to design a repair strategy to strengthen the H-piles which required excavating into the riverbed. The 2011 flooding of the Tioga County Public Works Facility destroyed many of their documents. There were no as-built plans for this local bridge to confirm the overall length of the piles and more specifically the remaining embedment depth. NDT was contracted to test each H-pile and determine the overall length. A sonic/ultrasonic system, designed and built by NDT Corporation, acquires pulse velocity (ASTM C597-16) data. This information is used to determine the average compressional and shear wave velocity of energy traveling along/in the steel pile. The pile length is calculated by measuring the energy wave’s 2-way (down to the pile tip and back) travel time through the pile.

SESSION 4A.2

Determining H-Pile Lengths Using Non-

Destructive Test Methods

This presentation will focus on this case study using this nondestructive testing method to determine the actual pile length of an unknown bridge foundation and locate the depth to bedrock along this reach of Apalachin Creek. Nondestructive testing can also assess the integrity of existing concrete bridge components such as decks, beams, columns, piers, abutments and foundations. Nondestructive test measurements can bolster confidence for design engineers to rely on existing bridge components. Ultimately it is the bridge owner that realizes the benefits to utilizing these techniques as Reusing or salvaging bridge components can save resources and reduce rehabilitation costs.

Synopsis: This presentation will discuss the replacement of Maiden Lane Bridge over Round Pond Creek in the town of Greece, NY. Funding for the project was provided by the Bridge-NY Program. The bridge carries approximately 11,000 vehicles per day and is located in a highly-developed suburban area, adjacent to a signalized intersection, shopping plaza, gas station and a church. The replacement bridge is a precast concrete three-sided structure supported on precast concrete invert slabs. The structure has a clear span of 30 feet, an overall width of 83 feet and is built on a 38-degree skew.

The project addressed the condition of the existing deteriorated reinforced concrete box culvert structure. Corroded reinforcement and spalling of the concrete top slab had reduced the load carrying capacity of the bridge. The condition, if left unaddressed, would have required posting of the bridge with a load restriction in the very near future.

The presentation will cover the preliminary design, final design and construction phases of the project. The presentation will discuss various challenges encountered throughout the project. These include a strict project schedule, limited funding, unanticipated ROW acquisitions, utility conflicts and WZTC challenges.

Synopsis: The South Main Street Bridge is a historic arch bridge built circa 1872 and comprised of two stone arches with two abutments, a center pier, and stone spandrel walls and parapets. A 2014 inspection detected severe deterioration of the arches, thereby compromising support of the bridge. Based on the historic nature of the bridge, it was decided to rehabilitate the structure instead of replacing it. During the rehabilitation, the original structure was exposed, providing an interesting snapshot into construction techniques in the late 1800’s.

This presentation will review the project focusing on the foundation improvement work done, rehabilitation of the arch barrels, spandrel walls and parapets Additionally, we will discuss the impact utilities had on the project and focus on lessons learned through the process of restoring this 140+ year-old structure.
