The latest changes to the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS), which became effective January 13, 2005, requires FHWA approved bridge inspection training for all divers conducting underwater inspections. One method of meeting this requirement is the completion of an FHWA approved underwater diver bridge inspection training course. Satisfactory completion of this 4-day course will fulfill the NBIS requirement.

 

This 4-day workshop provides an overview of diving operations that will be useful to agency personnel responsible for managing underwater bridge inspections.

 

Course topics include:

·         Methods of Underwater Inspection,

·         Underwater Material Deterioration Mechanisms and Inspection Techniques,

·         Scour Inspection Techniques, 

·         Underwater Element-Level Rating,

·         Underwater Bridge Inspection Training

This course is scheduled at the request of contractors to meet the needs of jobs requiring underwater bridge inspection knowledge. Contractors should contact the CITF for consideration. Sessions will be scheduled accordingly.

 

Please bring work clothes, gloves, and work boots to the workshop. Underwater gear not required.
