2 Accelerated Bridge Replacement (ABR) or Accelerated Bridge Construction(ABC) involves various methods during project planning, design, contracting, and construction to significantly reduce the time to construct or replace a bridge.

3

4 Successful ABC requires detailed planning

5 Planning Steps Owner s Objectives Reduce social impact to customers and Neighbors Reduce road closure periods to reduce Traffic impacts & associated economic impact

6 Planning Steps Owner s Objectives Control project costs & keep project on schedule

7 Planning Steps Owner s Objectives Higher product quality & contractor productivity

8 Planning Steps Owner s Objectives Higher product quality & contractor productivity

9 Detailed Planning Check list for go/no go meeting Detailed outage schedule

10 NICTD Rapid Insertion Bridge Replacement Start - Roll in Mobilization at 3 a.m. Friday, November 3, p.m. Friday Removal of the West Panel of the Existing Truss Bridge 12 a.m. Saturday Lowering of the West End 8 a.m. Saturday Nearly Complete Demolition of the Superstructure 12 a.m. Sunday Demolition of the Existing East Abutment Cap 4 a.m. Sunday Setting of the New Precast East Abutment Cap 11a.m. Sunday Trackwork Required for the Roll in 1 p.m. Sunday New Bridge Rolled Half Distance 4 p.m. Sunday Bridge Rolled into Final Position Finished - Railroad Opens for Normal Operation 7 p.m. Sunday, November 5, p.m. Sunday NICTD Train Crossing the New Structure

44 Benefits of ABC reduce construction time improved safety improved productivity improved community relationships improved construction quality improved construction costs

45 Future of ABC: According to FHWA 40% of bridges were built over 40 years ago with a 50 year design life - 25% require rehabilitation, repair or replacement

46 Future of ABC: Increased awareness on motorist delay and environmental impact

47 Future of ABC: General public is more demanding and public officials are taking notice

48 Lessons Learned: Don t be afraid to think outside the box Team Composition involve contractors with ABC experience during design process Plan for unexpected problems Have extra equipment on standby

49 Upcoming NICTD ABC Projects August 5, double track truss span using SPMT s NICTD bridge over Torrence Avenue, Chicago 2013 roll-in 65 thru-girder span over Trail Creek, Michigan City build new abutments behind existing
