To prevent future shoving issues, Low-P FA1 Cement was used for the overlay. The work was completed in one weekend, and the result is a smooth riding surface that protects the underlying deck, providing long-lasting durability in Boston’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles.
Using Low-P FA1 Cement to place a new 6-inch-thick overlay on the bridge deck allowed the project to be completed in two days, resulting in minimal traffic disruptions. Passengers have an impermeable riding surface that provides corrosion resistance to the underlying deck reinforcement from road salts, providing long-lasting durability in Boston’s four-season climate.
The concrete slab replacement was done quickly and during off-hours to not disrupt operations at the food-waste recycling plant. Low-P FA1 Cement was used and the floor was return back to service within hours.
