Background
Oversized and overweight Rough Terrain (RT) & All
Terrain (AT) commercial cranes are used extensively at
Corps projects and continuously cross Corps owned
bridges.
Effects of crane loads on Corps bridges are a frequent
concern due to variability in age, design, construction,
and condition of structures.
The only guidance available for analysis is in LRFD
AASHTO Bridge Design Specifications and LRFR
AASHTO Guide Manual for the Condition Evaluation of
Existing Bridges.

Design Philosophy
Current bridge design criteria adopts a conservative
reliability index, imposes checks to ensure serviceability
and durability without incurring a major cost impact.
During the rating process, conservative evaluation
standards can be prohibitive as load restrictions,
rehabilitation, and replacement become increasingly
necessary.
The rating procedures recognizes a balance between
safety and economics. In most cases, a lower target
reliability than design has been chosen for load rating at
the strength limit state.
