CATHODIC PROTECTION OF CONCRETE BRIDGES: A MANUAL OF PRACTICE
This document provides explanation, guidance, and direction concerning cathodic protection of concrete bridge elements to the highway engineer who wants to incorporate cathodic protection in a bridge project. The manual which provides background information on corrosion fundamentals, is divided into 3 parts: design, construction, and operation and maintenance. An appendix provides standard specifications for cathodic protection systems for both decks and substructures. These specifications are modeled after those currently being developed under the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, Associated General Contractors, and the American Road and Transportation Builders' Association Task Force 29. The document is intended to be a useful reference for engineers who design and prepare specifications or who oversee turnkey operations.
