• Section 2.17.6.1. Revise second sentence as follows:
• Design connections or splices made with fillet welds for the average of the calculated stress and the strength of the member, but no less than 75% of the strength of the member.
• Section 3.5.1.6(2). Revise completely as follows:
• Use web flatness tolerances for all girders according to the following equation and the Web Flatness Tolerance Table below .
− +15050 1 75 . 0tD t
Where, D = web depth, in. t = web thickness, in.
Verify web flatness in all girder panels in the presence of the Department inspector. Flatness variations and locations exceeding the allowable tolerance must be documented. Submit a repair procedure to the C hief Structural Materials Engineer for review and approval before repair .
