16. Abstract
This document, the Bridge Inspector’s Reference Manual (BIRM), is a comprehensive reference manual on
programs, procedures, and techniques for inspecting a nd evaluating a variety of in-service highway bridges. It was
intended to replace the BITM 90 which was first published in 1991 to assist in training highway personnel for the
new discipline of bridge safety inspection. BITM 90 replaced BITM 70 which had been in use for 20 years and has
been the basis for several training programs varying in length from a few days to two weeks.
The BIRM is a revision and upgrade of the previous manual conforming with FHWA Specifications for the
National Bridge Inventory (SNBI). Improved bridge inspection techniques are presented, and state-of-the-art
inspection equipment is included. New or expanded coverage is provided on culverts, nonredundant members,
fatigue-prone details, redundancy, cable stayed bridges, prestressed segmental bridges, movable bridge inspection,
underwater inspection, and nondestructive evaluation, critical findings, a nd inspection intervals.
A series of NHI courses on bridge inspection, based on the BIRM, have been developed. These courses include a
two-week course, FHWA-NHI-130055,Safety Inspection of In-Service Bridges and a one-week course designed
specifically for professional engineers (PEs), FHWA-NHI-130056,Safety Inspection of In-Service Bridges for
Professional Engineers.Together, these two courses meet the definition of approved comprehensive training in
bridge inspection as defined in the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS).
The ca talog for NHI Courses can be found on the National Highwa y Institute website: www.nhi.fhwa.dot.gov
