Abstract:

This Plan Reading Course was developed by the Department of Civil and Construction Engineering of Iowa State University under contract with the Iowa Highway Research' Board, Project HR-324. It is intended to be an instructional tool for Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT), county and municipal employees within the state of Iowa. Under this contract, a previous Plan Reading Course, prepared for the Iowa State Highway Commission in 1965, has been completely revised using a new format, new plans, updated specifications, and new material. This course is a self-taught course consisting of two parts; Highway Plans, and Bridge and Culvert Plans. Each part consists of a self-instruction book, a set of plans, a question booklet, and an answer booklet. This is the self-instruction book for the Bridge and Culvert Plans part of the course. The example structures included in this part of the course are a prestressed concrete beam bridge and a reinforced concrete box culvert. The accompanying plans for those structures are: BRIDGE ON U.S. 65 - OVER RELOCATED U.S. 18 - This is a 70.5 m x 27.3 m pretensioned, prestressed concrete beam bridge in Cerro Gordo County, Design No. 1895, September 1996; and REINF.
