  • Abstract:
    This report summarizes the evaluation of the performance of cathodic protection installed on I-89 bridges over ; Gile Pond Road (NH Route 114) during a rehabilitation project in 1987. ; Control bridges of I-89 over Hominy Pot Road, approximately 1.5 miles to the northwest, were also evaluated. ; The Hominy Pot Road bridges received a standard-practice NHDOT rehabilitation of an overlay of 1 ½ inches of ; concrete and a new membrane. The Gile Pond Road bridges each received a four-zone Raychem FEREX 100 ; anode cathodic protection system overlaid with concrete and no membrane. This system was tested after ; installation and records indicate it was working properly; however, within 6 years only one of the four zones was ; functioning as expected. Two zones of the four appear to have failed in 1990 and the system failed completely by ; 1998. ; Field surveys for this study took place in 2009 using an evaluation protocol as presentation in NCHRP report ; 558. The control bridges exhibited more substantial damage in comparison with higher rebar loss, in addition to ; amounts of concrete delamination and spalling. ; The cathodic protection system did provide some benefit to these bridges; however, the system failed and is ; no longer provides protection. The particular system used in this installation proved to be unsuccessful at ; most installations in the U.S.
