railroad company on any grade separation Structure that carries a railroad over a Highway), and
2. Two sets to the Project Engineer.

The Bridge and Structures Engineer will return the plans to the Project Engineer, who will forward
copies to the Contractor. If any sheets require correction, the Contractor shall correct and resubmit
them in the quantities required above. No material shall be fabricated until: (1) the Bridge and
Structures Engineer has approved the plans, and (2) the State Materials Engineer has approved the
materials source and the fabricator.

In approving shop plans, the Contracting Agency accepts only the nature and scope of the details
without validating any dimensions.

Unless the Engineer permits it in writing, no changes shall be made in any drawing after its approval.

Before physical completion of the project, the Contractor shall furnish the Project Engineer one set of
reproducible copies of the as built shop plans. (One more set is required for each affected railroad
company on any grade separation Structure that carries a railroad over a Highway.) The reproducible
copies shall be clear, suitable for microfilming, and on permanent sheets that measure no smaller
than 11 by 17 inches. Alternatively, the shop drawings may be provided in an electronic format with
the approval of the Bridge and Structures Engineer.

The Contractor shall not substitute sections that differ from Plan dimensions unless the Engineer
approves in writing. If the Contractor requests and receives approval to substitute heavier members,
the Contracting Agency shall not pay any added cost.

14.3.8 Handling, Storing, and Shipping of Materials

Markings applied at the mill shall distinguish structural low alloy steel from structural carbon steel. The
fabricator shall keep the two classes of steel carefully separated.

Before fabrication, all material stored at the fabricating plant shall be protected from rust, dirt, oil, and
other foreign matter. The Contracting Agency will accept no rust-pitted material.
After fabrication, all material awaiting shipment shall be subject to the same storage requirements as
unfabricated material.

All structural steel shall arrive at the job in good condition. As the Engineer requires, steel damaged
by salt water shipment shall be thoroughly cleaned by high pressure water flushing, chemical
cleaning, or sandblasting, and repainted with the specified shop coat.

189
All material shall be stored so as to prevent rust and loss of small parts. Piled material shall not rest
on the ground or in water but on skids or platforms.

The loading, transporting, unloading, and piling of the structural steel material shall be so conducted
that the metal will be kept clean and free from injury from rough handling.

In field assembly of structural parts, the Contractor shall use methods and equipment not likely to
twist, bend, deform, or otherwise injure the metal. Any member slightly bent or twisted shall be
corrected before it is placed. The Contracting Agency will reject any member with serious handling
damage.

Girder sections shall be handled so as to prevent damage to the girders. If necessary, the Contractor
shall provide temporary stiffeners to prevent buckling during erection.

14.3.9 Straightening Bent Material

If the Engineer permits in writing, plates, angles, other shapes, and built-up members may be
straightened. Straightening methods shall not fracture or injure the metal. Distorted members shall be
straightened mechanically. A limited amount of localized heat may be applied only if carefully planned
and supervised, and only if the Engineer has approved a heat-straightening procedure in writing.
Parts to be heat-straightened shall be nearly free from all stress and external forces except those that
result from the mechanical pressure used with the heat.

After straightening, the Contractor will inspect the member for fractures using a method determined by
the Contracting Agency.

The Contracting Agency will reject metal showing sharp kinks and bends.

The procedure for heat straightening of universal mill (UM) plates by the mill or the fabricator shall be
submitted to the Engineer for approval.

14.3.10 Workmanship and Finish

Commercial Blast Cleaning; and
2. Fabricated from plate stock with the primary rolling direction of the stock parallel to the length of
the member, or as shown in the Plans.

14.3.13 Edge Finishing

All rolled, sheared, and thermal cut edges shall be true to line and free of rough corners and
projections. Corners along exposed sheared or cut edges shall be broken by light grinding or another
method approved by the Engineer to achieve an approximate 1/16-inch chamfer or rounding.

190
Sheared edges on plates more than ⅝ inch thick shall be planed, milled, ground, or thermal cut to a
depth of at least ⅛ inch.

Re-entrant corners or cuts shall be filleted to a minimum radius of 1 inch.

Exposed edges of main load-carrying tension members or tension components of flexural members
shall have a surface roughness no greater than 250-micro inches as defined by the American
National Standards Institute, ANSI B46.1, Surface Texture. Exposed edges of other members shall
have surface roughness no greater than 1,000-micro inches.
The Rockwell hardness of thermal-cut edges of structural low alloy or high-strength steel flanges, for
main load-carrying tension members or tension components of flexural members shall not exceed
RHC 30. The fabricator shall prevent excessive hardening of flange edges through preheating, post
heating, or control of the burning process as recommended by the steel manufacturer and approved
by the Engineer.

Hardness testing shall consist of testing thermal-cut edges with an approved portable hardness tester.
The hardness tester, and it’s operating test procedures, shall be submitted to the Engineer for
approval prior to use. The hardness tester shall be convertible to Rockwell C scale values.

At two locations, two tests shall be performed on each thermal-cut edge, one each within ¼ inch of
the top and bottom surfaces. The tests shall be located ¼ the length of each thermal-cut edge from
each end of the cut. If one or more readings are greater than RHC 30, the entire length of the edge
shall be ground or machined to a depth sufficient to provide acceptable readings upon further retests.
If thermal-cutting operations conform to procedures approved by the Engineer, and hardness testing
results are consistently within acceptable limits, the Engineer may approve a reduction in the testing
frequency.

14.3.14 Planning of Bearing Surfaces

Ends of columns that bear on base and cap plates shall be milled to true surfaces and accurate
bevels.

When assembled, caps and base plates of columns and the sole plates of girders and trusses shall
have a fit tolerance within 1/32 inch for 75 percent of the contact area. If warped or deformed, the
plates shall be heat straightened, planed, or corrected in some other way to produce accurate, even
contact. If necessary for proper contact, bearing surfaces that will contact other metal surfaces shall
be planed or milled. Surfaces of warped or deformed base and sole plates that will contact masonry

Complete penetration tension groove welds in Railway bridges shall be 100 percent radiographically
inspected. These welds include those in the tension area of webs, where inspection shall cover the
greater of these two distances: (a) 15 inches from the tension flange, or (b) ⅓ of the web depth. In
addition, edge blocks conforming to the requirements of AASHTO/AWS D1.5M/D1.5: 2010 Bridge
Welding Code.

The Contractor shall maintain the radiographs and the radiographic inspection report in the shop until
the last joint to be radiographed in that member is accepted by the radiographer representing the
Contractor. Within 2 working days following this acceptance, the Contractor shall mail the film and two
copies of the radiographic inspection report to the Authority.

longitudinal butt joint welds in beam or girder webs.
2. Bridge bearings and modular expansion joints.
3. Sign bridges, cantilever sign Structures, and bridge mounted sign brackets excluding longitudinal
butt joint welds in beams.
4. Light, signal, and strain pole standards.

The testing procedure and acceptance criteria for tubular members shall conform to the requirements
of the AWS D1.1/D1.1M latest edition, Structural Welding Code.

194
Magnetic Particle Inspection
1. Fillet and partial penetration groove welds:
At least 30 percent of each size and type of fillet welds (excluding intermittent fillet welds) and
partial penetration groove welds in the following welded assemblies or Structures shall be tested
by the magnetic particle method:
a. Flange-to-web connections in Highway bridges.
b. End and intermediate pier diaphragms in Highway bridges.

At least 30 percent of each longitudinal butt joint weld in the beam and girder webs shall be tested
by the magnetic particle method.

3. Complete penetration groove welds on plates 5/16 inch or thinner shall be 100 percent tested by
the magnetic particle method. Testing shall apply to both sides of the weld, if backing plate is not
used.

4. The ends of each complete penetration groove weld at plate edges shall be tested by the
magnetic particle method.

Where 100 percent testing is not required, the Engineer reserves the right to select the location(s) for
testing.

If rejectable flaws are found in any test length of weld in item 1 or 2 above, the full length of the weld
or 5 feet on each side of the test length, whichever is less, shall be tested.

14.3.25 Screw Threads

Screw threads shall be Indonesian Standard (SNI) or US Standard and shall fit closely in the nuts.

14.3.26 High-Strength Bolt Holes

At the Contractor’s option under the conditions described in this Section, holes may be punched or
subpunched and reamed, drilled or subdrilled and reamed, or formed by numerically controlled drilling
operations.

The hole for each high-strength bolt shall be ¹/16 inch larger than the nominal diameter of the bolt.
In fabricating any connection, the Contractor may subdrill or subpunch the holes then ream full size
after assembly or drill holes full size from the solid with all thicknesses of material shop assembled in
the proper position. If the Contractor chooses not to use either of these methods, then the following
shall apply:
1. Drill bolt holes in steel splice plates full size using steel templates.
2. Drill bolt holes in the main members of trusses, arches, continuous beam spans, bents, towers,
plate girders, box girders, and rigid frames at all connections as follows:
a. A minimum of 30 percent of the holes in one side of the connection shall be made full size
using steel templates.
b. A minimum of 30 percent of the holes in the second side shall be made full size assembled in
the shop.
c. All remaining holes may be made full size in unassembled members using steel templates.

195
3. Drill bolt holes in crossframes, gussets, lateral braces, and other secondary members full size
using steel templates.

The Contractor shall submit for the Engineer’s approval a detailed outline of the procedures proposed
to accomplish the Work from initial drilling through shop assembly.

Punched Holes
For punched holes, die diameter shall not exceed punch diameter by more than ¹/16 inch. Any hole
requiring enlargement to admit the bolt shall be reamed. All holes shall be cut clean with no torn or
ragged edges. The Contracting Agency will reject components having poorly matched holes.

Reamed and Drilled Holes


Reaming and drilling shall be done with short taper reamers or twist drills, producing cylindrical holes
perpendicular to the member. Reamers and drills shall be directed mechanically, not hand-held.
Connecting parts that require reamed or drilled holes shall be assembled and held securely as the
holes are formed, then match-marked before disassembly. The Contractor shall provide the Engineer
a diagram showing these matchmarks. The Contracting Agency will reject components having poorly
matched holes.

Burrs on outside surfaces shall be removed. If the Engineer requires, the Contractor shall
disassemble parts to remove burrs.

If templates are used to ream or drill full-size connection holes, the templates shall be positioned and
angled with extreme care and bolted firmly in place. Templates for reaming or drilling matching
members or the opposite faces of one member shall be duplicates. All splice components shall be
match-marked unless otherwise approved by the Engineer.

Numerically Controlled Drilled Connections


In forming any hole described in, the fabricator may use numerically controlled (N/C) drilling or
punching equipment if it meets the requirements in this Subsection.
The Contractor shall submit for approval a detailed outline of proposed N/C procedures. This outline
shall:
1. Cover all steps from initial drilling or punching through check assembly;
2. Include the specific members of the Structure to be drilled or punched, hole sizes, locations of the
common index and other reference points, makeup of check assemblies, and all other information
needed to describe the process fully.

N/C holes may be drilled or punched to size through individual pieces, or may be drilled through any
combination of tightly clamped pieces.

When the Engineer requires, the Contractor shall demonstrate that the N/C procedure consistently
produces holes and connections meeting the requirements of these Specifications.

Accuracy of Punched, Subpunched, and Subdrilled Holes


After shop assembly and before reaming, all punched, subpunched, and subdrilled holes shall meet
the following standard of accuracy. At least 75 percent of the holes in each connection shall permit
the passage of a cylindrical pin ⅛ inch smaller in diameter than nominal hole size. This pin shall pass
through at right angles to the face of the member without drifting. All holes shall permit passage of a
pin ³/16 inch smaller in diameter than nominal hole size. The Contracting Agency will reject any pieces
that fail to meet these standards.

Accuracy of Reamed and Drilled Holes


At least 85 percent of all holes in a connection of reamed or drilled holes shall show no offset greater
than ¹/32 inch between adjacent thicknesses of metal. No hole shall have an offset greater than ¹/16
inch.

196
Centerlines from the connection shall be inscribed on the template and holes shall be located from
these centerlines. Centerlines shall also be used for accurately locating the template relative to the
milled or scribed ends of the members.

Templates shall have hardened steel bushing inserted into each hole. These bushings may be
omitted, however, if the fabricator satisfies the Engineer (1) that the template will be used no more
than five times, and (2) that use will produce no template wear.

Each template shall be at least ½ inch thick. If necessary, thicker templates shall be used to prevent
buckling and misalignment as holes are formed.

Fitting for Bolting


Before drilling, reaming, and bolting begins, all parts of a member shall be assembled, well pinned,
and drawn firmly together. If necessary, assembled pieces shall be taken apart to permit removal of
any burrs or shavings produced as the holes are formed. The member shall be free from twists,
bends, and other deformation.

In shop-bolted connections, contacting metal surfaces shall be sandblasted clean before assembly.
Sandblasting shall meet the requirements of the SSPC Specifications for Commercial Blast Cleaning
(SSPC-SP 6).

Any drifting done during assembly shall be no more than enough to bring the parts into place. Drifting
shall not enlarge the holes or distort the metal.

14.3.27 Shop Assembly

Method of Shop Assembly


Unless the Contract states otherwise, the Contractor shall choose one of the five shop assembly
methods described below that will best fit the proposed erection method. The Contractor shall obtain
the Engineer’s approval of both the shop assembly and the erection methods before Work begins.
1. Full Truss or Girder Assembly – Each truss or girder is completely assembled over the full
length of the Superstructure.
2. Progressive Truss or Girder Assembly – Each truss or girder is assembled in stages
longitudinally over the full length of the Superstructure.
a. For Trusses – The first stage shall include at least three adjacent truss panels. Each truss
panel shall include all of the truss members in the space bounded by the top and bottom
chords and the horizontal distance between adjacent bottom chord Joints.
b. For Girders – The first stage shall include at least three adjacent girder shop sections. Shop
sections are measured from the end of the girder to the first field splice or from field splice to
field splice.
c. For Trusses and Girders – After the first stage has been completed, each subsequent stage
shall be assembled to include: at least one truss panel or girder shop section of the previous
stage and two or more truss panels or girder shop sections added at the advancing end. The
previous stages shall be repositioned if necessary, and pinned to ensure accurate alignment.
For straight sections of bridges without skews or tapers, girders in each subsequent stage
may be assembled to include one girder shop section from the previous stage and one or
more girder shop sections at the advancing end.
If the bridge is longer than 150 feet, each longitudinal stage shall be at least 150 feet long,
regardless of the length of individual continuous truss panels or girder shop sections.
The Contractor may begin the assembly sequence at any point on the bridge and proceed in
either or both directions from that point.
Unless the Engineer approves otherwise, no assembly shall have less than three truss panels
or girder shop sections.

3. Full Chord Assembly – The full length of each chord for each truss is assembled with geometric
angles at the joints. Chord connection bolt holes are drilled/reamed while members are

197
assembled. The truss web member connections are drilled/reamed to steel templates set by
relating geometric angles to the chord lines.
At least one end of each web member shall be milled or scribed at right angles to its long axis.
The templates at both ends of the member shall be positioned accurately from the milled end or
scribed line.
4. Progressive Chord Assembly – Adjacent chord sections are assembled in the same way as
specified for Full Chord Assembly, using the procedure specified for Progressive Truss or Girder
Assembly.

5. Special Complete Structure Assembly – All structural steel members (Superstructure and
Substructure, including all secondary members) are assembled at one time.

Check of Shop Assembly


The Contractor shall check each assembly for alignment, accuracy of holes, fit of milled joints, and
other assembly techniques. Drilling or reaming shall not begin until the Engineer has given approval.
If the Contractor uses N/C drilling, this approval must be obtained before the assembly or stage is
dismantled.

14.3.28 Welded Shear Connector

All welded shear connectors on steel girder top flanges shall be installed in the field after the forms for
the concrete bridge deck are in place. The steel surface to be welded shall be prepared to SSPC-SP
11, power tool cleaning, just prior to welding. Installation, production control, and inspection of welded
shear connectors shall conform to Chapter 7 of the AASHTO/AWS D1.5M/D1.5: 2010 Bridge Welding
Code. After the welded shear connectors are installed, the weld and the disturbed steel surface shall
be cleaned and painted in accordance.

14.3.29 Painting

All painting shall be in accordance with the specification, which for all steel bridge material will be hot
dipped galvanized with minimum thickness of 160 microns.

Erection Marks
Erection marks to permit identification of members in the field shall be painted on previously painted
surfaces.

Machine Finished Surfaces


As soon as possible and before they leave the shop, machine-finished surfaces on abutting chord
splices, column splices, and column bases shall be covered with grease. After erection, the steel shall
be cleaned and painted as specified.

All surfaces of iron and steel castings milled to smooth the surface shall be painted with the primer
called for in the specified paint system.
While still in the shop, machine-finished surfaces and inaccessible surfaces of rocker or pin-type
bearings shall receive the full paint system. Surfaces of pins and holes machine-finished to specific
tolerances shall not be painted. But as soon as possible and before they leave the shop, they shall be
coated with grease.

14.3.30 Alignment and Camber

Before beginning field bolting, the Contractor shall:


1. Adjust the Structure to correct grade and alignment,
2. Regulate elevations of panel points (ends of floor beams), and
3. Delay bolting at compression joints until adjusting the blocking to provide full and even bearing
over the whole joint.

198
On truss spans, a slight excess camber will be permitted as the bottom chords are bolted. But camber
and relative elevations of panel points shall be correct before the top chord joints, top lateral system,
and sway braces are bolted.

Measuring Camber
The Contractor shall provide the Engineer with a diagram for each truss that shows camber at each
panel point. This diagram shall display actual measurements taken as the truss is being assembled.

14.3.31 Assembling and Bolting

To begin bolting any field connection or splice, the Contractor shall install and tighten to snug tight
enough bolts to bring all parts into full contact with each other prior to tightening these bolts to the
specified minimum tension. “Snug tight” means either the tightness reached by (1) a few blows from
an impact wrench or (2) the full effort of a person using a spud wrench.

As erection proceeds, all field connections and splices for each member shall be securely drift pinned
and bolted in accordance with 1 or 2 below before the weight of the member can be released or the
next member is added. Field erection drawings shall specify pinning and bolting requirements that
meet or exceed the following minimums:
1. Joints in Normal Structures – Fifty percent of the holes in a single field connection and 50
percent of the holes on each side of a single joint in a splice plate shall be filled with drift pins and
bolts. Thirty percent of the filled holes shall be pinned. Seventy percent of the filled holes shall be
bolted and tightened to snug tight. Once all these bolts are snug tight, each bolt shall be
systematically tightened to the specified minimum tension. “Systematically tightened” means
beginning with bolts in the most rigid part, which is usually the center of the joint, and working out
to its free edges. The fully tensioned bolts shall be located near the middle of a single field
connection or a single splice plate.
2. Joints in Cantilevered Structures – Seventy-five percent of the holes in a single field
connection and 75 percent of the holes on each side of a single joint in a splice plate shall be
filled with drift pins and bolts. Fifty percent of the filled holes shall be pinned. Fifty percent of the
filled holes shall be bolted and tightened to snug tight. Once all these bolts are snug tight, each
bolt shall be systematically tightened to the specified minimum tension. The fully tensioned bolts
shall be located near the middle of a single field connection or a single splice plate.

Cylindrical erection pins (drift pins) shall be placed throughout each field connection and each field
joint with the greatest concentration in the outer edges of a splice plate or member being bolted. Drift
pins shall be double-tapered barrel pins of hardened steel. The diameter of the drift pins shall be at
least 1/32 inch larger than the diameter of the bolts in the connection or the full hole diameter.

To complete a joint following one of the methods listed above, the Contractor shall fill all remaining
holes of the field connection or splice plate with bolts and tighten to snug tight. Once all of these bolts
are snug tight, each bolt shall be systematically tightened to the specified minimum tension. After
these bolts are tightened to the specified minimum tension, the Contractor shall replace the drift pins
with bolts tightened to the specified minimum tension.

The Contractor shall complete the joint or connection within ten calendar days of installing the first
bolt or within a duration approved by the Engineer. Any bolts inserted in an incomplete connection,
either loose or tightened snug-tight, which exceed the specified duration for completing the
connection, shall be subject to the following requirements:
1. Three assemblies for each size and length shall be removed from connection(s) that are to be
tensioned. Rotational capacity tests shall be performed on the removed assemblies to
demonstrate the assembly has sufficient lubricant to be tensioned satisfactorily.
2. Five assemblies shall be removed from the connection to establish the inspection torque.
3. In the case of tension-controlled bolts, three assemblies shall be removed and tested in
accordance with the specification to verify the minimum specified tension can be achieved prior to
shearing of the spline.

199
Assemblies removed for the purpose of rotational capacity testing, determination of the inspection
torques, or verification of tension-controlled bolt performance shall be replaced with new bolts at no
additional expense to the Contracting Agency. To minimize the number of removed assemblies, the
Contractor may combine rotational capacity testing and inspection torque determination as approved
by the Engineer.

The Contractor may complete a field bolted connection or splice in a continuous operation before
releasing the mass of the member or adding the next member. The Contractor shall utilize drift pins to
align the connection. The alignment drift pins shall fill between 15 and 30 percent of the holes in a
single field connection and between 15 and 30 percent of the holes on each side of a single joint in a
splice plate. Once the alignment drift pins are in place, all remaining holes shall be filled with bolts and
tightened to snug tight starting from near the middle and proceeding toward the outer gage lines.
Once all of these bolts are snug tight, the Contractor shall systematically tighten all these bolts to the
specified minimum tension. The Contractor shall then replace the drift pins with bolts. Each of these
bolts shall be tightened to the specified minimum tension.

All bolts shall be placed with heads toward the outside and underside of the bridge. All high-strength
bolts shall be installed and tightened before the falsework is removed.

The Contractor may erect metal railings as erection proceeds. But railings shall not be bolted or
adjusted permanently until the falsework is released and the deck placed.

The Contractor shall not begin painting until the Engineer has inspected and accepted field bolting.

14.3.32 Bolted Connections

Fastener components shall consist of bolts, nuts, washers, tension control bolt assemblies, and direct
tension indicators. Fastener components shall meet the requirements of this specification.

The Contractor shall submit documentation of the bolt tension calibrator for approval by the Engineer
and shall include brand, capacity, model, date of last calibration, and manufacturer’s instructions for
use. The Contractor shall supply the approved bolt tension calibrator and all accompanying hardware
and calibrated torque wrenches to conduct all testing and inspections described herein. Use of the
bolt tension calibrator shall comply with manufacturer’s recommendations.

Fastener components shall be protected from dirt and moisture in closed containers at the site of
installation. Only as many fastener components as are anticipated to be installed during the Work shift
shall be taken from protected storage. Fastener components that are not incorporated into the Work
shall be returned to protected storage at the end of the Work shift. Fastener components shall not be
cleaned or modified from the as-delivered condition. Fastener components that accumulate rust or dirt
shall not be incorporated into the Work. Tension control bolt assemblies shall not be relubricated,
except by the manufacturer.

All bolted connections are slip critical. Painted structures require either Type 1 or Type 3 bolts. Bolts
shall not be galvanized unless specified in the Contract documents. Unpainted structures require
Type 3 bolts. AASHTO M 253 bolts shall not be galvanized and shall not be used in contact with
galvanized metal.
Washers are required under turned elements for bolted connections and as required in the following:
1. Washers shall be used under both the head and the nut when AASHTO M 253 bolts are to be
installed in structural carbon steel, as specified.
2. Where the outer face of the bolted parts has a slope greater than 1:20 with respect to a plane
normal to the bolt axis, a beveled washer shall be used.
3. Washers shall not be stacked unless otherwise approved by the Engineer.
4. It is acceptable to place a washer under the unturned element.

200
All galvanized nuts shall be lubricated by the manufacturer with a lubricant containing a visible dye so
a visual check for the lubricant can be made at the time of field installation. Black bolts shall be
lubricated by the manufacturer and shall be “oily” to the touch when installed.

After assembly, bolted parts shall fit solidly together. They shall not be separated by washers,
gaskets, or any other material. Assembled joint surfaces, including those next to bolt heads, nuts, and
washers, shall be free of loose mill scale, burrs, dirt, and other foreign material that would prevent
solid seating.

When all bolts in a joint are tight, each bolt shall carry at least the proof load shown in Table 14-1
below:

Table 14-1. Minimum Bolt Tension

Prior to final tightening of any bolts in a bolted connection, the connection shall be compacted to a
snug tight condition. Snug tight shall include bringing all plies of the connection into firm contact and
snug tightening all bolts in accordance with the specification.

Final tightening may be done by the Turn-of-Nut Method, the direct-tension indicator method, or the
twist off-type tension control structural bolt/nut/washer assembly method. Preferably, the nut shall be
turned tight while the bolt is prevented from rotating. However, if required by either turn-of-nut or
direct-tension-indicator methods because of bolt entering and/or wrench operational clearances,
tightening may be done by turning the bolt while the nut is prevented from rotating.
1. Turn-of-Nut Method – After all specified bolting conditions are satisfied, and before final
tightening, the Contractor shall match-mark with crayon or paint the outer face of each nut and the
protruding part of the bolt. Each bolt shall be final tightened to the specified minimum tension by
rotating the amount specified in Table 14-2. To ensure this tightening method is followed, the
Engineer will (1) observe as the Contractor installs, snug tightens, and final tightens all bolts and
(2) inspect each match-mark.

Table 14-2. Turn-of-Nut Tightening Method Nut Rotational from Snug Tight Condition
Disposition of Outer Faces of Bolted Parts
Bolt Length Condition 1 Condition 2 Condition 3
L <= 4D ⅓-turn ½-turn ⅔-turn
4D < L < = 8D ½-turn ⅔-turn 5/6-turn
8D < L < = 12D ⅔-turn 5/6-turn 1-turn

Bolt length measured from underside of head to top of nut.

201
Condition 1 – Both faces at right angles to bolt axis.
Condition 2 – One face at right angle to bolt axis, one face sloped no more than 1:20, without
bevel washer.
Condition 3 – Both faces sloped no more than 1:20 from right angle to bolt axis, without bevel
washer.

Nut rotation is relative to the bolt regardless of which element (nut or bolt) is being turned.
Tolerances permitted plus or minus 30 degrees (1/12-turn) for final turns of ½-turn or less; plus, or
minus 45 degrees (⅛-turn) for final turns of ⅔-turn or more.
D = nominal bolt diameter of bolt being tightened.
When bolt length exceeds 12D, the rotation shall be determined by actual tests in which a suitable
tension device simulates actual conditions.

2. Direct Tension Indicator Method (DTIs) – Shall not be used under the turned element. DTIs shall
be placed under the bolt head with the protrusions facing the bolt head when the nut is turned.
DTIs shall be placed under the nut with the protrusions facing the nut when the bolt is turned.
Gap refusal shall be measured with a 0.005-inch tapered feeler gage. After all specified bolting
conditions are satisfied, the snug tightened gaps shall meet Table 13-3 snug tight limits.
Each bolt shall be final-tightened to meet Table 14-3 final-tighten limits. If the bolt is tensioned so
that no visible gap in any space remains, the bolt and DTI shall be removed and replaced by a
new properly tensioned bolt and DTI.
The Contractor shall tension all bolts, inspecting all DTIs with a feeler gage, in the presence of the
Engineer. DTIs shall be installed by two-person (or more) crews, with one individual (1)
preventing the element at the DTI from turning and (2) measuring the gap of the DTI to determine
the proper tension of the bolt.
If a bolt, that has had its DTI brought to full load, loosens during the course of bolting the
connection, it shall be rejected. Reuse of the bolt and nut are subject to the provisions of this
Section. The used DTI shall not be reinstalled.

3. Twist Off-Type Tension Control Structural Bolt/Nut/Washer Assembly Method (Tension Control
Bolt Assembly) – Tension control bolt assemblies shall include the bolt, nut, and washer(s)
packaged and shipped as a single assembly. Unless otherwise approved by the Engineer, tension
control bolt assembly components shall not be interchanged for testing or installation and shall
comply with all provisions of ASTM F 1852. If approved by the Engineer, the tension control bolt
assembly components may be interchanged within the same component lot for girder web slices
or other locations where access to both sides of the connection is restricted.

202
The tension control bolts shall incorporate a design feature intended to either indirectly indicate,
or to automatically provide, the minimum tension specified in Table 13-1.
The Contractor shall submit the tension control bolt assembly to the Engineer for approval with:
bolt capacities; type of bolt, nut, and washer lubricant; method of packaging and protection of the
lubricated bolt; installation equipment; calibration equipment; and installation procedures.
The tension control bolt manufacturer’s installation procedure shall be followed for installation of
bolts in the verification testing device, in all calibration devices, and in all structure connections.
In some cases, proper tensioning of the bolts may require more than one cycle of systematic
partial tightening prior to final yield or fracture of the tension control element of each bolt. If yield
or fracture of the tension control element of a bolt occurs prior to the final tightening cycle, that
bolt shall be replaced with a new one.
Additional field verification testing shall be performed as requested by the Engineer.
All bolts and connecting hardware shall be stored and handled in a manner to prevent corrosion
and loss of lubricant. Bolts that are installed without the same lubricant coating as tested under
the verification test will be rejected, and they shall be removed from the joint and be replaced with
new lubricated bolts at no additional cost to the Contracting Agency.

AASHTO M 253 bolts, galvanized AASHTO M 164 bolts, and ASTM F 1852 tension control bolt
assemblies shall not be reused. Black AASHTO M 164 bolts may be reused once if approved by the
Engineer. All bolts to be reused shall have their threads inspected for distortion by reinstalling the
used nut on the bolt and turning the nut for the full length of the bolt threads by hand. Bolts to be
reused shall be relubricated in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation and as approved
by the Engineer. Used bolts shall be subject to a rotational capacity test as specified in Pre-Erection
Testing. Touching up or retightening bolts previously tightened by the Turn-of-Nut Method, which may
have been loosened by the tightening of adjacent bolts shall not be considered as reuse, provided the
snugging up continues from the initial position and does not require greater rotation, including the
tolerance, than that required by Table 14-2.

Pre-Erection Testing
High-strength bolt assemblies (bolt, nut, direct tension indicator, and washer), both black and
galvanized, shall be subjected to a field rotational capacity test, as outlined below, prior to any
permanent fastener installation. For field installations, the rotational capacity test shall be conducted
at the jobsite. Each combination of bolt production lot, nut production lot, washer production lot, and
direct tension indicator production lot shall be tested as an assembly, except tension control bolt
assemblies, which shall be tested as supplied by the manufacturer. Each rotational capacity test shall
include three assemblies. Once an assembly passes the rotational capacity test, it is approved for use
for the remainder of the project unless the Engineer deems further testing is necessary. All tests shall
be performed in a bolt tension calibrator by the Contractor in the presence of the Engineer. High-
strength bolt assemblies used in this test shall not be reused. The bolt assemblies shall meet the
following requirements after being pretensioned to 15 percent of the minimum bolt tension in Table
14-1. The assembly shall be considered as nonconforming if the assembly fails to pass any one of the
following specified requirements:
1. The measured torque to produce the minimum bolt tension shall not exceed the maximum
allowed torque value obtained by the following equation:

Torque = 0.25 PD

Where:
Torque = Calculated Torque (foot-pounds)
P = Measured Bolt Tension (pounds)
D = Normal Bolt Diameter (feet)

2. After placing the assembly through two cycles of the required number of turns, where turns are
measured from the 15 percent pretension condition, as indicated in Table 14-2,
a. The maximum recorded tension after the two turns shall be equal to or greater than 1.15
times the minimum bolt tension listed in Table 14-1.

203
b. Each assembly shall be successfully installed to the specified number of turns.
c. The fastener components in the assembly shall not exhibit shear failure or stripping of the
threads as determined by visual examination of bolt and nut threads following removal.
d. The bolts in the assembly shall not exhibit torsional or torsional/tension failure.

3. If any specimen fails, the assembly will be rejected. Elongation of the bolt between the bolt head
and the nut is not considered to be a failure.

Bolts that are too short to test in the bolt tension calibrator shall be tested in a steel joint. The
Contractor shall (1) install the high-strength bolt assemblies (bolt, nut, direct tension indicator, and
washer) in a steel joint of the proper thickness; (2) tighten to the snug tight condition; (3) match-mark
the outer face of each nut and the protruding part of the bolt with crayon or paint; (4) rotate to the
requirements of Table 14-2; and (5) record the torque that is required to achieve the required amount
of rotation. The assembly shall be considered as nonconforming if the assembly fails to pass any one
of the following specified requirements:
1. The recorded torque to produce the minimum rotation shall not exceed the maximum allowed
torque value obtained by the following equation:

Torque = 0.25 PD

Where: Torque = Calculated Maximum Allowed Torque (foot-pounds)


P = Specified Bolt Tension per Table 14-1, multiplied by a factor of 1.15 (pounds)
D = Normal Bolt Diameter (feet)

2. After placing the assembly through two cycles of the required number of turns, where turns are
measured from the snug tight condition specified in this specification.
b. Each assembly shall be successfully installed to the specified number of turns.
c. The fastener components in the assembly shall not exhibit shear failure or stripping of the
threads as determined by visual examination of bolt and nut threads following removal.
d. The bolts in the assembly shall not exhibit torsional or torsional/tension failure.

3. If any specimen fails, the assembly will be rejected. Elongation of the bolt between the bolt head
and the nut is not considered to be a failure.
The Contractor shall submit the manufacturer’s detailed procedure for pre-erection (rotational
capacity) testing of tension control bolt assemblies to the Engineer for approval and shall have an
approved procedure prior to testing.
Three DTIs, per lot, shall be tested in a bolt tension calibrator. The bolts shall be tensioned to 105
percent of the tension shown in Table 14-1. If all of the DTI protrusions are completely crushed (all
five openings with zero gap), this lot of DTIs is rejected.

Three twist off-type tension-controlled bolt assemblies, per assembly lot, shall be tested in a bolt
tension calibrator. The bolts shall first be tensioned to a snug tight condition. Tensioning shall then be
completed by tightening the assembly nut in a continuous operation using a spline drive installation
tool until the spline shears from the bolt. The bolt assembly tension shall meet the requirements of
Table 13-1. If any specimen fails, the assembly lot is rejected.

Bolting Inspection
The Contractor, in the presence of the Project Engineer, shall inspect the tightened bolt using a
calibrated inspection torque wrench, regardless of bolting method. The Contractor shall supply the
inspection torque wrench. Inspection shall be performed within seven calendar days from the
completion of each bolted connection or as approved by the Engineer.
If the bolts to be installed are not long enough to fit in the bolt tension calibrator, five bolts of the same
grade, size, and condition as those under inspection shall be tested using Direct Tension-Indicators
(DTIs) to measure bolt tension. This tension measurement test shall be done at least once each
inspection day. The Contractor shall supply the necessary DTIs. The DTI shall be placed under the
bolt head. A washer shall be placed under the nut, which shall be the element turned during the

204
performance of this tension measurement test. Each bolt shall be tightened by any convenient means
to the specified minimum tension as indicated by the DTI. The inspecting wrench shall then be applied
to the tightened bolt to determine the torque required to turn the nut 5 degrees (approximately 1 inch
at a 12-inch radius) in the tightening direction. The job inspection torque shall be taken as the average
of three values thus determined after rejecting the high and low values.
Five representative bolts/nuts/washers and DTIs if used (provided by the Contractor) of the same
grade, size, and condition as those under inspection shall be placed individually in a bolt tension
calibrator to measure bolt tension. This calibration operation shall be done at least once each
inspection day. There shall be a washer under the part turned in tightening each bolt if washers are
used on the Structure. In the bolt tension calibrator, each bolt shall be tightened by any convenient
means to the specified tension. The inspection torque wrench shall then be applied to the tightened
bolt to determine the torque required to turn the nut or head 5 degrees (approximately 1 inch at a 12-
inch radius) in the tightening direction. The job-inspection torque shall be taken as the average of
three values thus determined after rejecting the high and low values.

Ten percent (at least two), or as specified by the Engineer, of the tightened bolts on the Structure
represented by the test bolts shall be selected at random in each connection. The job-inspection
torque shall then be applied to each with the inspecting wrench turned in the tightening direction, with
no restraint applied to the opposite end of the bolt. If this torque turns no bolt head or nut, the
Contracting Agency will accept the connection as being properly tightened. If the torque turns one or
more bolt heads or nuts, the job-inspection torque shall then be applied to all bolts in the connection.
Except for tension control bolt assemblies and DTIs with zero gap at all protrusion spaces, any bolt
whose head or nut turns at this stage shall be tightened and reinspected. Any tension control bolt
assemblies or DTIs that have zero gap at all protrusion spaces shall be replaced if the head or nut
turns at this stage.

The Contractor shall submit the manufacturer’s detailed procedure for routine observation to ensure
proper use of the tension control bolt assemblies to the Engineer for approval and shall have an
approved procedure prior to any assembling of bolted connections.
