1050. 3(c) 1050. 3(c) operators or crane company representative, signal personnel, Structure Control Engineer, and onsite Representative to discuss the accepted erection pl an. Conduct safety talk with crane operator as specified in Section 108.05(c)6.

3.b Conformance to Erection Plan . Ensure conformance to the erection plan . Any modification

to or deviations from the accepted erection plan will require revised drawings , calculations, and verification of stresses and geometry.

3.c Erection Stresses. Account for any erection stresses that are induced in the structure as a

result of the use of a method of erection or equipment which differs from that indicated or specified, and which will remain in the finished structure as locked- in stresses. Provide a dditional material, at no additional cost to the Department, to keep both temporary and final stresses within the allowable limits used in design. Provide temporary bracing or stiffening devices to accommodate handling stresses in individual members or segments of the structure during erection. Use wind loads and distribution of wind loads to girders according to AASHTO Guide Specifications for Wind Loads on Bridges During Construction.

3.d Maintaining Alignment and Camber. During erection, support segments of the structure in a

manner that will produce the proper alignment and camber in the completed structure. Install cross frames and diagonal bracing, as necessary during the erection process, to provide stability and ensure correct geometry . Provide temporary bracing, if necessary, at any stage of erection.

4.Bearings and Anchorage.

4.a General. This work consists of furnishing and installing bridge bearings. Bearing types include, but are not limited to, elastomeric pad, rocker, roller, pot, spherical, disk, and sliding plate bearings. Included as components of bearings are masonry, sole and shim plates, bronze or copper -alloyed bearing and expansion plates, anchor bolts, PTFE sheets or surfacing, lubricants and adhesives. The furnishing and installation of bedding materials used under masonry plates is also included in this work. Construct bearings according to the indicated details. If complete details are not provided, furnish bearings that conform to the limited, indicated details and provide the design capacities for loads and movements shown or specified and the performance characteristics specified.

4.a.1 Working Drawings. If complete details for bearings and their anchorages are not indicated, prepare and submit working drawings for the bearings. Show all details of the bearings and of the materials proposed for use on such drawings, and have the drawings approved before fabrication of
