Long-Term Bridge Performance (LTBP) Program Definition of Bridge Performance: Bridge Performance Encompasses How Bridges Function and Behave Under the Complex and Interrelated Factors they are Subjected to Daily: Traffic Volumes Loads De-Icing Chemicals Freeze-Thaw Cycles Environment Extreme Events Method of Design Construction Materials Age Maintenance History

Long-Term Bridge Performance (LTBP) Program Vision: The LTBP Program will Serve as the National Platform for Strategic Long-Term Investigation of In-Service Bridge Performance. Mission: Foster Improved Bridge Performance, Health, Stewardship, and Management Through the Analysis of Data Collected Over a 20-Year Period on a Large Representative Sample of U.S. Highway Bridges. To achieve this, the Program is Designed to Produce and Support Improved Deterioration Models, Reliable Life-Cycle Cost and Forecasting Models, Design Procedures, and Decision-Making Tools.

Virginia Bridge Testing Coring USW Impact Echo GPR Electrical Resistivity

Initial East Coast N/S Bridge Corridor

Long Term Bridge Performance Program “Robot” Remote controlled Cameras GPS 4 NDE technologies Deployed on 24 bridges 3 high-resolution cameras capture holistic deck-surface images to show deck cracks, and the lengths and widths of the cracks as small as 1 millimeter. 360-degree images also can show the presence and condition of barriers, poles, curbs, and other surrounding hardware. GPS precisely tags condition data with exact location using global coordinates. Electrical resistivity device enables bridge inspectors to measure the level of corrosion within the deck. 14 impact echo devices are a seismic or stress-wave technology that are used to find defects and anomalies in concrete such as delamination and debonding, including depth, spread, and severity. 6 ultrasonic surface wave sensors are used to assess the quality and modulus of elasticity or strength of the concrete deck. GPR provides a qualitative condition assessment of the deck and can detect apparent or suspected deterioration such as delamination or corrosion. The system uses 32 dense array, ground-coupled antennas for high-spatial resolution. Integrates data into a 3-D visualization that shows the exact shape, width, depth, and location of damages.

NBIS Compliance Update Progress made nationally on 20 of 23 metrics 1 metric stayed the same at 100% Satisfactory 2 metrics re‐defined with no comparison available Significant improvement in 5 metrics 3 frequency, scour POAs, QC/QA CY 2011 PY 2013 % Change Satisfactory 70.5 % 79.3 % 8.9 % Active Improvements 29.0 % 20.6 % (8.4 %) Unsatisfactory 0.5 % > 0.08 % (0.42 %) Things are noticeably improving. Significant improvements in 5 metrics: CC to SC or C, and SC to C

NBIS Compliance Update FHWA/AASHTO Task Force in 2011 Some metrics revised for 2012 assessments Remainder revised for current cycle Issued latest version of metrics on 4/1/13 May training for FHWA staff Risk considerations, commentary, incorporated Q&As Metrics for PY 2014 (upcoming review year) 15 of 23 metrics were revised and sent out to Divisions on 4/1/2013

NBI Data Quality Trends show results of significant efforts to reduce errors Error = bad or missing data > 60 Million pieces of data in NBI Number of Errors 2009 2010 2011 2012 115,811 20,284 6,967 4,155 Further clarification: Bad data includes values that are coded that are out of the range of assigned codes for a specific item, or data that does not pass certain reasonableness cross checks such as the bridge deck with curb to curb being larger than the bridge deck with out to out. We acknowledge that there are exceptions so some of these cross checks because of unusual structure configurations. Further clarification: Missing data is values that are not submitted for required items to be coded for highway bridges. A check is made that the bridge is a highway bridge before issuing an error. For instance if a pedestrian bridge is submitted we would not expect to see a functional classification or certain other information.

NBIS Regulations Update Mandated by MAP-21 Methodology, training, and qualifications for inspectors Frequency of inspections Three years to complete (October 2015)

NBIS Update Risk-based inspection intervals 4/1/2017 3:01 AM NBIS Update Risk-based inspection intervals Is 24 months the right interval for both of these bridges? In carrying out the revisions required by paragraph (6), the Secretary shall consider a risk- based approach to determining the frequency of bridge inspections. © 2007 Microsoft Corporation.
