Structure Detail Drawings
Bridge
Group Structure Detail drawings are intended to supplement contract
structure drawings for bridges and appurtenant highway structures.
These drawings are used for recurring features in the same manner as
the printed "B Standard Drawings", which these drawings will eventually
replace.
The Structure Detail format was developed to:
- Make it easier for contractors and contract administrators to read and have access to the information.
- Facilitate updating and enhancement of the standards electronically so as to be current for each project advertisement.
- Facilitate
communication of the most current information regarding the standards
to inhouse, consultant and outside agency users.
- Conserve natural resources in the printing, distribution and maintenance of printed documents.
- Prepare
for the upcoming total management of contract documents by electronic
media, including all drawings, specifications, cost estimates, bid
advertisement and as-built records.
Structure
Detail drawings are to be included with the contract drawings bid set
and placed after the "S" Structure drawing sequence. The included "SD"
Drawings will be identified with the contract drawings index list.
As
was the case with the previous Standard Drawings, Bridge Group assumes
responsibility for the unaltered contents for technical accuracy
according to the provisions contained in the General Notes. Electronic
copies of these drawings will be provided for appropriate projects upon
request. The contents within the inner border line shall not be
altered. The project identification boxes within the outer border line
are to be completed by the user. The Structure Detail drawings are most
often used in conjunction with contract structural drawings prepared by
a licensed professional engineer. Their use for specific application
with other civil contract drawings, for verification of their
suitability and applicability, shall also be under the direction of a
licensed professional engineer.
* Structure
Detail Drawings are not yet available for these standards. Refer to
the ADOT B-Standards published in June 1992 (Publication Number
31-002). For ordering information, refer to the
Publications Brochure.
