Abstract
- The costly emergency repair of a deteriorating section of High Bridge in Boston, MA, has brought to the fore the problem of aging steel stringers in bridge spans. The $1 million project comes on the heels of other stringer problems in Massachusetts, which could trigger an investigation of the estimated 47,000 steel stringer bridges in the US. The two-level High Bridge was temporarily closed for three days to carry out the repair, which was managed by Weidlinger Assoc Inc.
