Bridge load evaluation manual

Description

The Bridge Load Evaluation Manual is a documentation of Alberta Transportation's bridge load evaluation guidelines, practices and polices that is intended to supplement the requirements of CSA S6-14. The determination of the load carrying capacities of the Province's bridges is a major ongoing activity, and the carrying out of consistent, thorough and properly documented bridge load evaluation results in an important factor in achieving load evaluation results that maximize the load carrying capacities of the province's bridges while maintaining an adequate level of safety. It is intended that this document will help facilitate the achievement of this goal. It is not the intent of the manual to limit progress or overrule the exercise of proper engineering judgement in the carrying out of bridge load evaluations. Consultants should satisfy themselves that the requirements of both the manual and CSA S6-14 are appropriate for a specific bridge load evaluation.
