DECK WIDENING AND REPLACEMENT OF WOODROW WILSON MEMORIAL BRIDGE

Several innovative construction techniques were used in replacing the deck of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge with lightweight precast concrete deck panels. Rehabilitation was completed 8 months ahead of schedule, $6 million under budget, and without disrupting the flow of traffic. This paper discusses the project in terms of traffic maintenance, design of the replacement deck system, precast concrete deck panels, polymer concrete applications, panel fabrication, and construction operations.
