55-1.03 CONSTRUCTION

55-1.03A General


Field welding must comply with section 55-1.02E(7).

Assemble parts into final positions without damage. Follow all matchmarks. Do not damage or distort members when hammering.

Drifting done during assembly must not enlarge bolt holes or distort the metal.

55-1.03B Falsework


Falsework must comply with section 48-2 except that dead loads consist of the weight of the structural steel and portions of the structure supported by the falsework.

Construct falsework and concrete forms on steel structures such that loads applied to girder webs (1) are applied within 6 inches of a flange or stiffener and (2) do not produce local distortion of the web. Provide temporary struts and ties to (1) resist lateral loads applied to girder flanges and (2) prevent appreciable vertical movement between the edge of deck form and the adjacent steel girder.


55-1.03C Erection

55-1.03C(1) General


Reserved

55-1.03C(2) Continuous Members


Unless otherwise shown, structural steel girders are designed for continuity in supporting girder dead load. If erection procedures provide girder continuity for dead load, preassemble members with field joints in a no-load condition in a horizontal or an upright condition.

You may erect structural steel girders such that dead-load girder continuity is not provided. If erection procedures do not provide girder continuity for dead load:

1. You may increase cross-sectional areas or change grades of steel to provide the specified capacity if authorized.

2. The erected structure must have a load-carrying capacity at least equal to the structure shown.



55-1.03C(3) Bearings and Anchorages


Set bearing assemblies level. The Engineer provides adjustments to horizontal positions of bearing assemblies due to temperature. Attain full bearing on the concrete under bearing assemblies.

Immediately before setting bearing assemblies or masonry plates on ground concrete surfaces, thoroughly clean and apply caulking to all contact surfaces.

During welding, protect bearings and bearing surfaces using authorized methods.

The embedded end of each anchor bolt must terminate with a head or a nut and washer. Anchor bolts must allow true positioning of bearing assemblies.

Mortar placed (1) under masonry plates or bearing assemblies or (2) in anchor bolt sleeves or canisters must comply with section 51-1.02F except the cement to sand ratio must be 1 to 3. Mortaring and constructing mortar pads under masonry plates must be done after girder erection and before placing deck concrete.

If anchor bolts are installed in pipe sleeves or metal canisters, fill the pipes or canisters completely with mortar.

55-1.04 PAYMENT


The payment quantity for structural steel is the weight determined from the dimensions shown using the following rules and assumptions:

1. Density of structural and cast steel is 0.2833 lb/cu in. The density of cast iron is 0.26 lb/cu in.

2. Weight of rolled shapes and structural plate is computed using nominal weight and dimensions with no deduction for copes, cuts, and holes.

3. Weight of fillet welds is as shown in the following table:




Size of fillet weld (inches)

4. Weight of galvanizing is added to the calculated base metal weight using the table of weights of zinc coatings in ASTM A153/A153M.

5. Weight of bolts, nuts, and washers is added to obtain the weight of completed members. The weight of oversize bolts and nuts is not included.

6. Weight of nuts, bolts, washers, cap screws, anchor bolts, and anchor pipe sleeves in the finished structure is based on nominal weight and dimensions.

7. Weight of paint is not included.
