Abstract:In 1997, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) began to design the
Charenton Canal Bridge using HPC for both the superstructure and the substructure. As a part of the project,
a research contract was awarded to assist LADOTD in the implementation of high performance concrete in
the Charenton Canal Bridge. After the bridge was built, the PI and a graduate student semi-annually collected
data for several years, and then data collection was interrupted. A final report titled “Implementation of
High Performance Concrete in Louisiana” was then published and distributed. The report recommended the
continuation of the long-term monitor of the bridge.
As a result, this study was titled “Long-Term Monitoring of the HPC Charenton Canal Bridge” was initiated.
The monitoring of the bridge was set to ten years, assumed from day 1091 (11/15/2001) to day 4055 (4/6/2010).
