Abstract:

Douglas Nims 0000-0001-7663-397X ; Victor Hunt 0000-0002-1590-3291 ; Arthur Helmicki 0000-0002-7759-5482 ; The Veterans’ Glass City Skyway Bridge is a large cable stayed bridge in Toledo, Ohio owned and ; operated by the Ohio Department of Transportation. The bridge superstructure and, particularly, the ; stay cables have been subject to periodic icing events. An icing event monitoring system was ; designed and installed on the bridge to enable the bridge operators to mitigate the potential hazards ; associated with ice falling onto the bridge deck from the stays. The monitoring system collects ; regional weather data and integrates it with data from a weather station on the bridge and icing sensors ; mounted on the stays. The monitoring system displays information on ice accumulation and potential ; shedding for the operators on a compact dashboard. ; This user manual was provided to ODOT when the monitoring system was transitioned to ODOT from ; the universities conducting the research, testing in the laboratory and field, and development after a ; trial operation period covering two winters. It contains operation and maintenance instructions for the ; hardware and software that constitute the monitoring system.
