RECENT POLICY CHANGES IN THE EPG | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
MoDOT has made great strides to build a good transportation system and increase taxpayers' trust in its ability to deliver what was promised. Innovative concepts, such as Practical Design and design-build, were used to deliver those commitments and have made MoDOT a leader in the transportation industry. These forward-thinking, innovative concepts are reflected in the ENGINEERING POLICY GUIDE (EPG). This document provides a single reference for all engineering and engineering-related guidance by combining the former Right of Way, Design, Bridge, Construction, Traffic and Maintenance manuals. MediaWiki, the engine behind the Wikipedia on the World Wide Web, is the software delivering the EPG. Millions of hits on the EPG endorse this format to be easy to navigate and pleasing to read. A small HELP ARTICLE is included to assist with helpful hints on how to use the EPG as well as other points of interest.

Alternate and Optional Pavement 1/19/12: Design has re-titled "Alternate Pavement" and clarified its guidance. Roughness Coefficients 1/19/12: In EPG 749.5.3.2, the roughness coefficients for the Kerby-Hathaway Equation for Overland Flow were updated to match the runoff program. 2009 MUTCD 1/18/12: Traffic has revised all of the EPG 620 articles, EPG 900, all of the EPG 902 articles and all of the EPG 903 articles to bring policy into substantial compliance with the 2009 MUTCD. EPG 643.4 was also expanded. This is a general rewrite of policy. Several articles are new, some former articles have been removed and many articles have been retitled. EPG 413.3.2 Laboratory Procedure 1/12/12: Construction and Materials has updated guidance to reflect two newly adopted AASHTO test methods (T 327 and T 330). EPG 106.20.11 Internal Material Records 1/12/12: Contract and diary info are to be archived for 11 years. 1/11/12: Guidance has been clarified for situations when unequal wing lengths are acceptable. BEAP Consultant List 1/10/12: The BEAP Consultant List was updated in EPG 754 Bridge Engineering Assistance Program. Clear Zone Definition 1/9/12: In EPG 902.12 Glossary, the definition of "clear zone" was clarified to more accurately reflect the AASHTO definition. EPG 751.2.4 Load Distributions 1/5/12: Guidance for load distribution has been updated, based on AASHTO LRFD criteria. EPG 123.1.1 FHWA Oversight for the National Highway System 1/4/12: The guidance for FHWA oversight parameters was clarified. 1/3/12: Bridge has added guidance to clarify the design of anchor rods. Two New QRGs 12/22/11: Two new QRGs, Sampling Checklist and PAL Plant Inspection and Record, were added to EPG 101. Consideration of Blast Loading 12/13/11: To coincide with the release of AASHTO Guildelines on Blast Loading, Bridge has provided additional guidance to consider blast loading as another load in both EPG 751.1.2.33 and EPG 751.2.2.5. Northwest District Continuous Operations Routes 12/6/11: The continuous operations routes in the NW District have been updated in EPG 133.4.1 and EPG 144.1. Billboard Clause 12/5/11: Guidance about the Billboard Clause was removed from EPG 236.5.21 The Conveyance Document. EPG 751.50 A5 Miscellaneous Std Detailing Notes 12/5/11: General Note A5.5's definition is already included in the standard specifications and was removed to free additional space on our plans. EPG 751.40.4.3 Replacement of Existing Curb with Thrie Beam Rail 12/2/11: Numerous minor revisions bring EPG guidance into compliance with the standard plans for thrie beam in both EPG 751.40.4.3 and EPG 751.50 Standard Detailing Notes. Steel Superstructure Details 11/23/11: Guidance in EPG 751.14.5 Details was revised for greater consistency. EPG 751.14.5.10 was added to illustrate consistency in application. Effect of Grades on Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) 11/22/11: Traffic and Highway Safety Division has added a spreadsheet to calculate SSD for additional grades. 11/22/11: Outdated information in several portions of this article were updated. Three forms were also revised to increase clarity. EPG 137 Construction Inspection Guidance for Records to be Maintained 11/14/11: District, office, naming convention and archiving option information for construction inspection records was updated. EPG 751.13.2 Silicone Expansion Joint Sealant 11/8/11: Silicone expansion joint sealant systems shall not be used for normal contract new or rehabilitation jobs. 11/7/11: In EPG 409 Seal Coat, the JSP has been updated. Minimum Support Length 11/3/11: Guidance has been expanded about the impact of minimum support length on some dimensions in EPG 751.34.3.2. Continuous Operations Routes Maps Updated 11/1/11: EPG 133.4 Snow and Ice Control Operation and EPG 144 Practical Operations now provide the latest maps for Continuous Operations Routes. |
