Current Bridge Inspection Courses Offered by the National Highway Institute (NHI)
National Highway Institute offered nationwide
NHI Web-Based Bridge Inspection Training
Courses and certain prerequisites can be taken online for free or discount.
NHI Comprehensive Bridge Inspection Training
PREREQUISITES REQUIRED FOR ATTENDANCE. This 10-day course is the national comprehensive bridge inspection course fulfilling the NBIS. This course is based on the 2012 FHWA “Bridge Inspector’s Reference Manual (BIRM)” and provides training on the safety inspection of in-service highway bridges. The course includes a physical field trip which includes an actual bridge inspection. This field trip is in lieu of one or both virtual bridge exercises. ODOT will provide transportation for course participants to attend the field trip portion of this course. Further training will include inspection on critical findings, their identification and response; curriculum on the AASHTO element level inspection approach; and activities that maximize participant engagement throughout the course.
NHI Stream Stability and Scour for Engineers
PREREQUISITES REQUIRED FOR ATTENDANCE. The National Highway Institute's (NHI) 3-day Stream Stability and Scour at Highway Bridges course provides participants with comprehensive training in the prevention of hydraulic-related bridge failures. Course participants will receive training in conducting a stream stability classification and qualitative analysis of stream response and make estimates of scour at a bridge opening. This comprehensive training provides preventive techniques for identifying, analyzing, and calculating various hydraulic factors that impact bridge stability. Public and private sector engineers responsible for maintaining the integrity of highway bridges will find it invaluable.
NHI Stream Stability and Scour for Bridge Inspectors
PREREQUISITES REQUIRED FOR ATTENDANCE. This course is an abbreviated presentation of 135046 Stream Stability and Scour at Highway Bridges. The course provides an understanding of and assistance in detecting hydraulic-related problems at highway bridges. The effects of steam instability, scour, erosion, and stream aggradation and degradation are covered. Countermeasures to these problems are discussed. This course concentrates on visual keys to detecting scour and stream instability problems and provides an introduction to portable scour monitoring instrumentation. The course emphasizes inspection guidelines to complete the hydraulic and scour-related coding requirements of the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS).
NHI Bridge Maintenance
Replacing the original Bridge Maintenance course (FHWA-NHI-134029), this entirely new Instructor-led Training (ILT) course will provide participants with knowledge regarding common deficiencies that occur in bridges, common defects in bridge elements, preventive maintenance techniques, and protective systems intended to prevent deterioration and deficiencies in bridges. With this knowledge, this course will enable participants to investigate proper bridge maintenance procedures using bridge maintenance resources and apply these practices on-the-job.
