Includes bibliographical references (pages 259-264).Introduction -- Environmental regulations -- Containment -- Waste treatment and stabilization -- Maintenance-painting strategies -- Surface preparation with abrasives -- Other surface preparation methods -- Cost -- Summary and conclusions -- Appendices -- References.Final report;Approximately 90% of the steel highway bridges in the United States are protected from corrosion with lead-based paints. A comprehensive study was performed to evaluate the various factors involved with lead-paint removal. Containment and ventilation systems were studied and recommendations were developed for containment materials, design of joints, design of air inputs, negative pressure, and air flow within containment. Waste disposal is a significant issue due to long-term liability and cost. Tests were performed on hazardous waste characterization, waste minimization, methods of generating non-hazardous waste, and long-term stability of lead-containing wastes and stabilized wastes. Alternate surface preparation methods and costs were evaluated. Recyclable steel abrasive was found to be cost-competitive and to reduce the amount of debris by approximately 90% compared to expendable abrasive.Sponsored by Office of Engineering & Highway Operations R&D, Federal Highway Administration, under contract no.
