Description
The following specific objectives are defined based on the request for proposal (RFP) by WHRP:
Determine the severity, causes, and types of slope protection issues in Wisconsin by analyzing
qualitative and quantitative factors believed to trigger failure in the slope protection.
Plan and oversee comprehensive surveys providing useful information about alternative slope
protection strategies practiced successfully at various other states.
Perform Life-Cycle cost analyses to provide information about the optimum abutment slope protection
strategy with maximum service life and minimum life-cycle cost.
Update the WisDOT bridge manual with consistent recommendations and guidelines from this study.
