BIENNIAL BRIDGE INSPECTION SUMMARY
GRAND TRUNK RR OVER PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE
STRUCTURE NUMBER – 3953
CITY OF LANSING, MI
October 9, 2017
The bridge is a 2-span concrete encased steel beam superstructure on single center pier and tall cantilever
abutments, constructed in 1928. The bridge is in overall fair condition. The bridge currently carries two tracks for
the Canadian National Railway.
DECK
The top of the bridge deck is not visible because of the railroad ballast above. The concrete deck was poured to
the bottom of the steel beams, partially encasing them. The concrete has numerous spalls along the bottom,
most of them exposing steel diaphragms. There are numerous stalactites forming between the steel beams and
the concrete. The fascias have deep spalls on either side with exposed broken reinforcement and heavy
leaching. There is 2-tube railing on top with concrete posts on a brush block. The horizontal tubes are corroded
and the brush block has a few spalls on both sides. We recommend replacing the tube railing near the east
abutment. The concrete end posts are heavily scaled with some heavy map cracking and leaching. There appears
to be some leaking occurring above the pier and at the abutments.
SUPERSTRUCTURE
The steel beams are encased in concrete to the bottom flange and are in fair condition. The paint has flaked off
most of the beams resulting in bottom flange surface rust. Several steel diaphragms are exposed where the
concrete has spalled and are also rusted. There are numerous high load scrapes along all beams in both spans.
Load carrying capacity does not appear to be affected.
SUBSTRUCTURE
The concrete abutments are in fair condition. They are surface coated and disguise any hairline cracks in the
concrete. There are a few shallow spalls along the top edge of the abutments but do not undermine the
bearings. There are corbels at the ends of both abutments, and all four of them are spalled with
exposed reinforcement. Sidewalks in front of abutments have settlement bumps in the southwest and southeast
quadrants.
The pier is in fair condition. The pier has been surface coated, but the cap is stained from leaking above. There is
horizontal cracking near the middle of both faces with some leaching and rust stains. There is some leaching
cracks in the bottom of the cap in bay 1S. There is a curb on either side in front of the crashwall that is heavily
scaled the entire length of the pier.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
• Replace railing on top of bridge.
• Scale loose concrete from deck underside and patch spalled fascias.
• Patch substructure.
• Repair tripping hazard in sidewalk in southwest and southeast quadrants (southeast is cold patched but
hazard remains).
• Replace tube railing near east abutment.
