The draft of Section T! for “Loads and Stresses” a5 discussed at Jaipur Session of the Indian Roads Congress in 1946 was considered further at a number of meetings ofthe Bridges Corumitice for finalisation In the years 1957 and 1958, the work of finalising the draft was pushed on ‘vigorously by the Bridges Committe, [At the Bridges Commitee meeting held at Bombay in ‘August, 1958, all the comments received til then on the ‘different clauses ofthis Section were disposed off finally and ‘a drafting Committee consisting of Sarvasht S.B. Joshi, KK. ‘Nambiar, K.P. Antia and S.K. Ghosh was appointed to workin conjunction with the officers of the Roads Wing for finalising this Section. ‘This Committee at its meeting held at New Delhi in September, 1958 and later through correspondence finalised Section Il ofthe code which was printed in 1958, reprinted in 1962 and 1963. ‘The Second Revision of Section TI of the Code (1964 dition) included all the amendments, additions and alterations nade by the Bridges Committee in their meetings held from time to time ‘The Executive Committee ofthe Indian Roads Congress approved te publication of the Third Revision in mete units, in 1966 IRC.2000 ‘The Bridges Commitee at its meeting held in 1971 approved certain amendments in light ofthe Fourth Revision of Section {and Section IL. These amendments, vide Amendment No.1 of November 1971 (amending Clauses 204,207, 209, 212 and 216) and Amendment No.2 of November 1972, (regerding sub-clause 201.1) have been included in this Edition, The resent reprint also incorporates Amendment No.3 of April 1974, regarding sub-clause 211.2 and eratum to sub-clause 209.40), As suggested by the Bridges Committe and approved by the Council, in the introduction to IRC:78-1979 “Standard Specifications and Code of Practice for Road Bridges, Section: Vl-Foundations and Substructure, 2000 Part: General Features of Design”, the provisions given in Appendices 4 and 5 of tat (Code are transferred and incorporated in his Code (reprinted in September 1981) with necessary eitorial changes 10 convey the correct sense as applicable to this Code. Appendin- referred to above is amalgamated in Clauses 202 and 203 and Append 5 replaces Clause 222 of IRC:6-1966 Bridge Code Section IL ‘Consequential to the transfer of Appendix-4, Clause 221 ofthis Code is replaced by not (iv) under item 1 of loads ad stresses of Appendix-4 of IRC:78-1979, As approved by Council in its meeting held at Bangalore on 22.598, the changes in Clause 218 - Temperature and a new Clause 223 on Ship’Barge Impact on Bridges have been incorporated ‘The Loads and Stresses Committe in its various meetings finalised the Clauses 202.3, 203, 206,207, 208,209, 212, 214, 217, 200.1 (¢), 224, 225 and 226 on 29.10.99.
