| Résumé : |
The Miami Avenue Bridge consists of a pair of 629-foot bascule bridges that sit in the heart of downtown Miami’s Brickell City Center. It is surrounded by high-rise buildings and crosses over the Miami River, a heavily utilized waterway for recreational crafts, cargo vessels and private yachts traveling to and from the Atlantic Ocean.
The existing coatings on the bridge spans were experiencing catastrophic intercoat delamination failure between the intermediate coat and the inorganic zinc-rich primer. The primer was tested by an independent third-party inspection firm. They determined it had sufficient adhesion values and life-cycle remaining, making it a strong candidate for an overcoat system in lieu of a full blast requirement. Furthermore, officials involved with the project wanted to limit the amount of downtime required to take the bridge out of service in order to perform the scheduled repairs — expediting the revitalization of the coatings by minimizing the surface preparation requirements as much as possible without compromising the integrity and performance value of the applied system. |
