Document Description
The proposed project involves seismic retrofitting the Carpenter Road Bridge in the City of Modesto. Retrofitting of this bridge is a result of CA Senate Bill 36 that was enacted in response to the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake. This Bill authorized a statewide seismic retrofit program as a top priority safety concern. Caltrans, through a screening process, found that the Carpenter Road Bridge was a candidate for the Local Seismic Retrofit Program.
In 1966, the State hired Dokken Engineering to provide seismic analysis, strategy determination and any needed structural retrofit design for this bridge. Dokken Engineering performed this work and based on AGRA Earth and Environmental field borings, it was found the the liquefication potential at the bridge site would require extensive foundation retrofit work. From these findings, the retrofit improvements were designed to reduce the potential risk and seismic hazards. Funds for the Carpenter Road Bridge Retrofit were approved and will come from a combination of State and Federal funds.
