Description
This project focused on the chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcing steel in structural concrete. The primary goal of this project is to analyze the surface chloride concentration level of the concrete bridge decks throughout Colorado. The study indicates three factors that can affect chloride concentration levels in bridge decks: age of the concrete, traffic, and weather. Samples were collected from decks and curbs of bridges in different climate...

Description
The overall conclusion of the study is that application of magnesium chloride deicer having a chemical composition and application rate similar to those of 1997-98 is highly unlikely to cause or contribute to environmental damage at distances greater than 20 yards from the roadway. Even very close to the roadway, the potential of magnesium chloride deicer to cause environmental damage is probably much smaller than that of other factors related to...

Description
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of a magnesium chloride-based deicer, a sodium chloride-based deicer, and the major salts contained in these deicers on seed germination and seedling growth and development of fifteen species of grasses and forbs native to Colorado. Seven of the fifteen species performed well at the low and medium concentrations of the salts and solutions; these are plants that can likely germinate in roadside...

Description
Roadside vegetation is exposed to a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses that can impact plant health. Drought, pollution, disease, insects, lack of nutrients, and roadbed management practices may potentially act alone or synergistically to adversely affect plants in proximity to the roadside. To date, little published research documents the impacts of certain deicers on vegetation in relationship to other potential stresses. This study provides...
