The objective of the project is to determine the actual truck loads on selected bridges in the Detroit Area. The study is focused on structures that showed signs of deck deterioration, in particular spalling concrete. Eight bridges were selected by the project team in cooperation with the Michigan DOT staff. The selection criteria included location, accessibility for testing equipment, span length, truck traffic volume, and presence of stop lights. The results of measurements are available for seven bridges. The results of measurements are available for seven bridges. The truck traffic on the eighth bridge was too slow for the equipment to operate properly.
