Design Criteria

Design Criteria Structures Design Guidelines ( SDG ) 3.14

Design Assumptions and Limitations

Design Assumptions and Limitations Do not use this fender system unless approved by the District for use on the specific project. Standard Plan s Index 471 - 0 30 includes a fully designed Fender System with 14" square prestressed concrete piling having a maximum "Energy Capacity" of 50 ft - kip ” . Refer to SDG 3.14 for additional Fender System design criteria, assumptions and limitations.

Use this standard with Index 510 - 001 .

Materials

Materials Table" and one "Fender System Table of Variables" are required for each Fender System location within a project. For projects with multiple fender systems or configurations, clearly note which Fender System the Tables are applicable to. See FDM 115 for more information regarding use of Data Tables.

Base the Minimum Pile Tip Elevations on the minimum embedment of 20 feet for the 14" square prestressed concrete piles into soil having a blow count (N) greater than 6. Standard Plan s Instructions Topic No. 625 - 010 - 003 Index 471 - 030 Fender Systems - Prestressed Concrete Piles & FRP Wales Provide the required Clearance Gauge details in the plans adjacent to the Data Tables.

Specify the numeral height, sign dimensions, foot marks and intermediate foot marks (when required), based on coordination with the USCG District Commander, 33 CFR 118.160 and the USCG Bridge Lighting and Other Signals Manual .

What your plans must show

Plan Content Requirements for this index — the SPI's checklist for designers.

• In the Structures Plans: Include Index 471
• - 0 30 on waterways where a fender system is required and no barge traffic is present Prepare and include in the plans supplemental project specific designs and details for the following items:
• • Electrical service for navigation lights including conduit path from bridge to fender system and identification of service point. Coordinate design with Index 510
• - 001 and Specifications Section
• • Access ladders and catwalks from bridge to fender system are optional and may be included at the discretion of the District. Designate in the plans the type of decking material to be used for catwalks: 2" x 12" Plastic Lumber or Fiberglass Open Grating. Catwalk decking material shall be determined by the District. Complete the following "Data Tables" and include them in the plans. One "Estimated Bill of
