Abstract:

Traditionally, the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has performed bridge load ratings using a method called load factor rating (LFR). With changes to bridge design and heavier vehicles traveling Missouri’s highways, MoDOT is working to adopt an updated system called load and resistance factor rating (LRFR). The primary goal of this study is to develop and recommend load posting policies using the LRFR method that are consistent with the current LFR policy. The primary goal of this study is to develop and recommend load posting policies using the LRFR method that are consistent with the current LFR policy.
