Summary

This UFC defines requirements for inspection, maintenance, and repair of bridges on military installations in accordance with current federal and industry standards. In particular, highway bridges must conform to Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) criteria (23 CFR 650 Subpart C) while railroad bridges must conform to Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) criteria (49 CFR 237). The purpose of these requirements is to ensure military installation bridges can safely and reliably carry civilian and military traffic. All bridges inspected, operated, and maintained by military agencies should meet or exceed the same standards to which bridges under U.S. civilian jurisdiction are subject.
