Bridge Inspection Record, TxDOT Form 1085 — Form 1085 delineates the basic components of the bridge to be inspected. Engineer shall enter a condition rating for each component and sub-component following guidelines in the Bride Inspector’s Reference Manual (BIRM) and in accordance with the Coding Guide provided in the current TxDOT Bridge Inspection Manual. For any condition rating of seven or lower, Engineer shall include comments explaining the rating. Form 1085 includes an appraisal of traffic safety features, waterway adequacy, and approach alignment. For grade separation bridges, Engineer shall record the vertical clearance stated on the existing vertical clearance signs in the “Miscellaneous” section of the form under the sub-component “Signs”. b. Bridge Inspection Follow-Up Action Worksheet (On-System), TxDOT Form 1386 — Engineer shall use Form 1386 to summarize areas of bridge deterioration and make a recommendation of how the bridge can be repaired. Engineer shall classify and group recommended repairs as follows: Critical – Actions required within 30 days; Urgent – Actions required within 6 months; or DocuSign Envelope ID: 364E1665D390AF88-C53D-43E3486C-4A6C-B672BF23-491A0BB3FA60 D8805298920F Routine – Actions recommended within 24 months. Engineer shall group recommended follow-up actions from previous inspections that have not been performed and are still warranted for the structure together, list again, and note that they were not performed since the last inspection. If immediate action is required to maintain the safety of a structure, Engineer shall notify the TxDOT District Bridge Inspection Coordinator immediately by telephone. Engineer’s inspection team leader shall be available to State for coordination of emergency efforts. If the TxDOT District Bridge Inspection Coordinator is not available, refer to the emergency contact list provided by the TxDOT District Bridge Inspection Coordinator and contact one of the individuals identified on this list. c. Elemental Inspection — Engineer shall collect elemental data for all on-system structures for use in the TxDOT Bridge Management Information System (BMIS). Engineer shall collect and group information by span, with the exception of culverts where Engineer shall collect and group elemental data by the structure. Engineer shall determine the elemental data and quantities in each condition state for each on-system bridge in accordance with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Manual for Bridge Element Inspection. Engineer shall enter this information into the bridge management software. Engineer shall print the Element Inspection Summary Listing report from the bridge management software and include it in the bridge inspection folder. The Engineer’s inspection team leader must initial the form adjacent to the printed name near the top of the form. Engineer may use any means, except unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), for the collection and recording of this information in the field. Engineer is not required to place field forms and other summary lists in the folder. d. Bridge Inventory Record, TxDOT Form 536 — Form 536 describes the bridge and has room for a detailed sketch on the reverse side for those bridges that do not have construction plans available. Engineer may hand draw a sketch or electronically paste a drawing to the reverse side. A new Form 536 is not necessary and the existing form shall remain in the folder with no modification by the Engineer if (1) Form 536 with revision date 08/2016 (or newer) is in the folder; (2) There have been no changes to the structure; and (3) The existing description and sketch properly represent the current geometry. If one or more of items (1), (2), and (3), above, are untrue, Engineer shall complete a new Form 536 and placed it in the bridge folder. Sketches are not required if plans are in the folder. Engineer shall capture deck surfacing type and thickness on Form 536. For many culverts, this consists of an overall combined thickness of pavement and fill. If there is no Form 536 in the folder, Engineer shall complete a new form. If plans are unavailable, Engineer shall complete both sides of the form. If plans are available, Engineer shall only complete the front side of the form. If major (i.e., structural) changes have been made to the bridge (e.g., lengthening, widening, partial reconstruction, span replacement), Engineer shall complete a new DocuSign Envelope ID: 364E1665D390AF88-C53D-43E3486C-4A6C-B672BF23-491A0BB3FA60 D8805298920F Form 536. If a sketch is located in the folder and there are no original and no widening plans, Engineer shall update or replace the sketch. In cases where new bridge attachments are created, Engineer shall archive all the existing documents/attachments and not delete any information. Note: It is acceptable to draw a sketch on a separate sheet of paper. Engineer shall title this separate sheet “Bridge Inventory Record Sketch, Sheet 2 of 2”. e. Revision to Bridge Inventory Record, TxDOT Form 2242 — Engineer shall only use Form 2242 for minor (i.e., non-structural) changes to the Bridge Inventory Record. Engineer shall complete Form 2242 for every inspection except when new inventory records and new inventory sketches are completed. Engineer shall update an existing form if space is available; otherwise, Engineer shall complete a new form. If both the inventory record and the inventory sketch have no changes, then Engineer shall populate the first line of the comments section with “No changes”. f. Channel Cross-Section Measurements Record, TxDOT Form 2600 — Engineer shall complete Form 2600 for each span bridge over a waterway (whether the waterway is wet or dry). Form 2600 is not required for culverts. Engineer shall take measurements on the upstream side of the bridge starting at the abutment. Each measurement must be taken from a fixed reference on top of the bridge down to the channel bed. Engineer shall take measurements at each bent, at each significant change in the channel bed, and at the mid-point of the channel. Engineer shall record the horizontal distance between the preceding bent and each vertical measurement as well as the cumulative horizontal distance from the beginning of the bridge (i.e., abutment) to each measurement. Several reference dimensions must be recorded, including top of water level (see Form 2600). Engineer shall add comments on the back side of the form.
