New Bridges or Transportation Structures: Sixth Street Viaduct Replacement Project

Description

Over its 84-year life span, the Sixth Street Viaduct became a cultural icon for the City of Los Angeles, appearing in countless motion pictures, music videos, and television commercials. The presentation will explain why the viaduct was replaced and discuss functional goals of the replacement. Particular attention will be given to bridge engineering innovations, including the use of Grade 80 reinforcement; the use of multi-strand post-tensioning couplers; and the development of third-generation friction-pendulum isolation bearing to meet a new seismic isolation design methodology developed for the viaduct. Emphasis will be placed on the engineering effort to support these innovations.

Presented by Michael Jones, P.E., S.E., HNTB Corporation
