3. IN SPECIAL CASES, A HALF WIDTH BEAM SECTION CAN BE USED TO ACCOMODATE UNUSUAL
BRIDGE WIDTHS. SPECIAL TEMPORARY BRACING WILL BE REQUIRED FOR SHIPPING AND
ERECTION. THIS OPTION SHOULD ONLY BE USED IN SPECIAL SITUATIONS AND WITH APPROVAL
FROM THE OWNER. IN LIEU OF THIS OPTION, THE DESIGNER CAN CONSIDER THE USE OF WIDER
OR NARROWER BEAMS WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE BEAM FORMS. (12' MAXIMUM CONCRETE
SECTION). THIS OPTION MAY REQUIRE SPECIAL SHIPPING CONSIDERATIONS, WHICH WILL LEAD
TO AN INCREASE IN SHIPPING COSTS.

BRIDGE CONFIGURATIONS WITH DIFFERENT PARAPETS AND OVERLAYS WILL RESULT IN
DIFFERENT MAXIMUM SPAN LENGTHS AND STRANDS.

NOTES:
1. THESE DETAILS ARE ONLY REQUIRED FOR NON-INTEGRAL SUBSTRUCTURES.
2. BEARING MAY BE TAPERED IN LIEU OF THE BEVELED SOLE PLATE. SEE NARROW BEARING DETAILS ON THIS SHEET.
3. BRIDGE SEAT AND BEARING ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE SLOPED TO MATCH THE CROSS SLOPE OF THE ROADWAY ABOVE.
4. THE SOLE PLATE CAN BE KEPT IN PLACE WITH FRICTION (NON-BOLTED OPTION). ADDITIONAL FIXITY CAN BE
OBTAINED BY BOLTING THE SIDE TABS INTO THE BEAM STEM (BOLTED OPTION).
5. THE NON-BOLTED OPTION IS THE PREFERRED OPTION. USE OF THE BOLTED OPTION MAY REQUIRE THE DRILLING OF
HOLES IN THE BEAM FORM FOR THE INSERTS.
6. ELASTOMERIC SHIMS MAY BE USED BETWEEN THE BOTTOM OF STEM AND TOP OF PLATE ON NON-BOLTED BEARINGS
TO PROPERLY SEAT BEAMS AND ADJUST THE ELEVATION OF THE TOP OF THE BEAM. BOLTED BEARINGS WOULD REQUIRE
THE SHIMS TO BE PLACED ON TOP OF OR BELOW THE BEARING.
7. TYPICAL KEEPER BLOCKS MAY BE USED BETWEEN THE STEMS FOR LATERAL RESISTANCE.
8. THE BOLTED PLATE OPTION SHOWN MAY BE MODIFIED TO PRODUCE A TYPICAL FIXED ELASTOMERIC BEARING. REFER
TO STATE STANDARDS.

1. HANGER RODS FOR UTILITIES SHOULD BE ATTACHED TO THE BEAM BY MEANS OF CAST-IN-PLACE INSERTS OR THROUGH
SLEEVES CAST INTO THE TOP FLANGE. OVERHEAD DRILLED-IN ANCHORS SHOULD NOT BE USED. REFER TO STATE
POLICIES FOR OVERHEAD ANCHORING.
2. PLACEMENT OF ANCHORS IN THE STEM OF THE BEAM SHOULD BE AVOIDED DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR INTERFERENCE
WITH THE STEM REINFORCING AND STRAND AND THE DIFFICULTIES OF SETTING ANCHORS PRIOR TO CASTING.
3. ONE TYPE OF UTILITY SHOWN, OTHER UTILITIES SIMILAR. REFER TO INDIVIDUAL UTILITY COMPANY DETAILS.
4. THIS DETAIL SHOWS THE UTILITY SUPPORT BETWEEN AT THE CENTERLINE OF THE BEAM. OTHER LOCATIONS ARE
ACCEPTABLE.
5. THE DESIGN ENGINEER SHOULD DETAIL ANY ADDITIONAL REINFORCING REQUIRED TO RESIST THE UTILITY LOADS.
