IDAHO Bridge Inspection Coding Guide
INTRODUCTION
This 2010 edition of the IDAHO BRIDGE INSPECTION CODING GUIDE incorporates a few changes and corrections from our previous issues of the coding guide. The Structure Inventory and Appraisal portion of this coding guide is based directly on the Federal Highway Administration’s RECORDING AND
CODING GUIDE FOR THE STRUCTURE INVENTORY AND APPRAISAL OF THE NATION’S BRIDGES, December 1995. The AASHTO MANUAL FOR BRIDGE EVALUATION, 2008
addresses requirements for record-keeping, inspection material testing, load rating and posting of bridges. The BRIDGE INSPECTOR’S REFERENCE MANUAL (BIRM), DECEMBER 2006 discusses inspection procedures and analysis of a structure. Other reporting requirements and
qualifications of personnel appear in the National Bridge Inspection Standards (23 CFR650.3). These publications are valuable supplements to this guide.
Many thanks to the ITD Bridge Inspection staff for their efforts in updating this Bridge Inspection Coding Guide.
