~ Joint repairs resulted in joint openings that were too large for evazote joint seals.
~ Performance of standard expansion joint seals was satisfactory.
~ A cost comparison suggested that replacing armored evazote joints with standard expansion joint seals with hold-down plates would be a possible means of addressing the problem.
~ Spalls observed at the epoxy coated ends of the prestressed girders.
A/I ~ Structure Design will review the policy for using armored evazote joints with the goal to replace them with expansion joint seals with hold-down plates.
