Description

TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 558: Manual on Service Life of Corrosion-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Bridge Superstructure Elements examines step-by-step procedures for assessing the condition of corrosion-damaged bridge elements. It also explores procedures that can be used to estimate the expected remaining life of reinforced concrete bridge superstructure elements and to determine the effects of maintenance and repair options on their service life. NCHRP Web-Only Document 88 contains the data used in the development and validation of the service life model described in NCHRP Report 558. Also, the computational software (Excel spreadsheet) for the service life estimation process is available.
