Assessment of Concrete Quality of Load-Bearing Structure of the Bridge Across Otava River No. 121-006 Near Zvikov after Fifty Years of Operation in Severe Environmental Conditions

This paper is introducing results of diagnostic survey of bridge no. 121-006 across Otava river near Zvikov [1], focusing on assessment of quality of concrete mix used for load-bearing structure of the bridge after more than 50 years of operation and assessment of reconstruction works (monolithic assembly of central joints of main fields) executed in 1994 [2]. Visual inspection of monolithic assembly joints, comparison of depth of concrete carbonation and thickness of top layer of reinforcement concrete and concrete compression strength are presented in this paper.
