Design Bridge Plan Checklist: General Plan and Elevation Sheet

It applies to the typical deck on beam type bridges, slab type bridges, and box culverts that meet the definition of a bridge. Use it as a guide only and do not assume it to be all-encompassing. Designers and drafters are expected to use good engineering judgment regarding the correct content to include in final bridge plans. Show location of in place bridge or substructures. Provide the type of structure, length, and width of the bridge. Show intersection of bridge roadway centerline with roadway centerlines below. Provide station, the angle between centerlines, and XY coordinates of intersections. Show channel or railroad below. Provide the name and location of roadway alignments. For bridges with variable width, provide gutter-to-gutter width at points where begin bridge and end bridge intersect with the centerline of the survey. Show and label abutments, piers, spans, slope protection, and piling, if applicable. If given in the Preliminary Plan, show and label toe of the slope, distance, station, and elevation. For all critical vertical clearance points, provide dimension from bottom of the beam to top of roadway or top of railroad track. Label centerlines of roadway below. Show finished grade and profile grade locations. Provide Geopak name in parentheses. Show elevation and label railroad ditch/slope control points and elevations. Provide ditch width and depth. The Design Bridge Plan Checklist: General Plan and Elevation Sheet mobile app allows you to replace your paper design checklist with a handheld device. The mobile form includes fields to document items such as bridge number, location, date, reviewer's notes and captures the reviewer's signature. Once the mobile app is filled out a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your bridge engineering and construction records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form.
