Abstract:Determination of the seismic risk of the I-24 bridges requires evaluating the current condition of all individual elements of the bridges. All bridges along the I-24 were visually inspected, pictured, and the records were stored in a database. Data of the visual inspection and the pictures were combined to form the completed site inspection forms of the I-24 bridges. Main visually observed deficiencies of the bridge elements were pointed out. The site inspection forms of all bridges on/over the I-24 in western Kentucky are used together with the bridge inventory to obtain different statistical figures regarding the characteristics of the bridges. The site inspection forms are considered to be a source that provides images of the existing conditions, assists in pre-earthquake preparation plans, and forms the basis to develop post-earthquake emergency response, inspection, and evaluation plans.
