Overview
This project repaired and resurfaced the existing deteriorated bridge deck on the Snake River Bridge. By repairing the bridge deck, WSDOT maintained the structural integrity of the bridge and safe operation of the highway.
The deteriorating concrete surface was removed with high pressure water (hydromilling). Exposed damage was repaired, and new concrete placed on the entire bridge deck. Hydromilling uses a high-pressure jet stream of water to remove larger amounts of concrete, up to 600 sq. ft. of concrete per hour. WSDOT used this method to remove the concrete without damaging the inlaid steel rebar.
