General Information (PDF) CHAPTER X GENERAL INFORMATION 1000 GENERAL This chapter is intended to provide handy reference and general information for permit vehicles and loads as well as various subject matter that frequently arises. 1001-A 1001.1 AIR FORCE MOVES (McCLELLAN AFB) To ensure compliance with Department of Defense and Air Force regulations for the movement of government vehicles from McClellan Air Force Base (Sacramento), all applications shall be signed by one of the following: Matt Nordella (916) 643-6904 Michael W. Mcllvoy (916) 643-5856 Joyce R. Estrada (916) 643-5856 Vernena M. Reed (916) 643-5856 Ilalee H. Helton (916) 643-4460 Emily J. Edwards (916) 643-4392 Maxine R. Nicholas (916) 643-4392 Mary E. Home (916) 643-4392 1002-B 1002.1 BOATS (Including House Boats) Boat hauling trailers used to haul extraleeal weight boats will require inspection. All inspections shall be documented on Form DM-M-P (7/80) Inspection Report". A file of certified trailers will be maintained by Headquarters Permit Office. It will be satisfactory to allow one laden move to a point where the trailer can be inspected if information has been provided by the hauler to show that the equipment is in compliance to transportation permit policy criteria. Heavy haul semitrailers which are exempt from inspection under the heavy haul inspection policy need not be inspected when used to haul extralegal weight boats. All boat haulers moving extralegal weight boats must furnish the trailer license number and the trailer identification number. If a heavy haul semitrailer is used to move a extralegal weight boat, the trailer license number and trailer identification number is not required in order to obtain a permit. 1003-C 1003.1 CONCRETE BOXES AND VAULTS Oversize and/or overweight precast monolithic concrete boxes as they are used in conjunction with sewers, storm drains, telephone systems, electrical systems, bank vaults, etc., shall be routinely issued permits in conformance with Caltrans policy governing all other single piece items. 1003.2 CONCRETE PANELS Section 35780.5 of the California Vehicle Code authorizes the Department to issue a special permit (in writing) allowing movement of concrete panels loaded in the horizontal position up to a maximum width of 12 feet. Upon the showing of good cause, the Department may issue permits for concrete panels wider than 12 feet. • Loads up to 12 feet in width may be loaded flat at legal height and length. • Single panels hauled on an incline or slant may be permitted to a maximum width of 12 feet, with permitted height consistent with normal policy limitations. If the overheight can be reduced to a lesser overdimension by placement on a lower trailer, the load shall be placed on a lower trailer. • Loads hauled in a vertical position will be permitted at heights consistent with policy and available vertical clearance. If the overheight can be reduced to a lesser overdimension by placement on a lower trailer, the load shall be placed on a lower trailer. The length of the loaded unit will dictate whether a double-drop, single-drop or high-bed trailer is used. Width and length must be legal. • It is frequently necessary to load concrete panels in a vertical position to prevent cracking. For safety, it will also be satisfactory to load panels back to back on an "A" frame, at legal width, in the center of the trailer. Because of weight and cracking potential, it is not generally reasonable to require single panel loading on a side-tilting tractor or diagonal bunk. The remark "loaded back-to-back for safety" shall be placed on the face of the permit. • Extralegal weight will be permitted for concrete panels loaded back-to-back on an "A" frame. When extralegal weight is involved, only one panel on each side of the "A" frame will be permitted. 1003.3 CONCRETE PILES Permits shall be written to allow a gross weight in excess of 80,000 pounds when all concrete piles on a load exceed 80 feet. Gross weight will be allowed in X - 2 conformance with Formula B. Internal axle groups will also have to comply with Formula B. All such cases will be considered an exception to Caltrans reducible load policy, thereby requiring a written request which includes axle weights and axle spacing for representative loads. Headquarters approval of the permits is required. This does not apply to commodities other than concrete piles over 80 feet in length. Steel beams, pile casings and other materials that can be welded or otherwise spliced are specifically not included. Loads of long (over 80 feet) and short piles may not be mixed and receive a permit to exceed gross weight. Concrete piles can be spliced and it appears that piles in the range of 126 feet cannot be transported at a combination length less than 135 feet. Permits will not be approved for piles that exceed 126 feet if the combination length exceeds 135 feet. 1003.4 CONCRETE PUMPS, SELF-PROPELLED OR TRAILER MOUNTED Concrete pumps must be inspected in order to qualify for an annual permit. The inspection shall be a one-time inspection and will only be reinspected if there is an identifiable problem, change of ownership, or change in configuration recorded on a notification of violation, either by the California Highway Patrol (CHP), peace officer, traffic officer, authorized agent of the Department of Transportation, or any other officer or employee charged with the care of protection of the highway. 1003.4.1 Annual permits will be issued under the following criteria. • Length - Legal • Height - Legal • Width - 10’0" • Weight - green or unbonused purple without removal of critical operational functions; includes a maximum of 120 gallons of water and a full fuel tank • 100-mile radius from base of operation for green weight 75-mile radius from base of operation for purple weight • Authorized 24-hour operation Monday thru Friday and daylight hours on Saturday and Sunday. 1003.4.2 Single trip permits will be issued under the following criteria. • Must be inspected or approved by Headquarters Permit Office or by an authorized Headquarters Vehicle Inspector. • Length - Legal • Height - 3 inches vertical clearance of the lowest structure on the authorized route. • Weight - Chart Weight - Purple • Width - 13 feet hard metal; 13’4" at tire bulge. • Operating hours shall be the same as hauled loads. • Curfew same as hauled loads. • Pilot Car same as hauled loads. 1003.5 CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT Integral components of construction equipment need not be removed providing the overall width of the load does not exceed 14 feet. Permits will be written to 14’6" in width when the width is caused by the draft arms of an earthmover, large dozer blades or tracks on crawler type equipment. Both axles of a tractor drawn scraper may be trailed for a distance not to exceed 25 miles. The rear axle of this type scraper may be trailed any distance when the trailing axle is within weight chart limitations. Rubber-tired self- propelled earthmovers may be hauled with rear axle trailing for a distance not to exceed 25 miles. All construction equipment should be reduced to the minimum width and height dimension practical. Roadway width and vertical clearances shall be duly considered. It is intended to provide for transporting construction equipment between jobs without mileage limitations, subject to the weight controls and determination of a reasonable safe operation under adequate traffic protection provisions. For moves within the 25 mile area, earthmovers will be allowed a single axle weight limit of 35,600 pounds purple and 32,500 pounds green, provided that no group of axles within 18 feet shall exceed the weights allowed in the chart for computing overload permits, Plate 25-1. The maximum weight per tire shall be restricted to the manufacturers load rating on the tire. Load transfer devices will require Bridge Department approval prior to making any allowance over the present limits. On all hauls exceeding these absolute maximums for single axles, the applicant will have the option of transporting the unit as a load subject to usual weight controls or rail shipment. X - 4 1003.6 CONSTRUCTION FORMS Forms for structures or other construction work, unless pre-approved for unusual or unique circumstances, shall not exceed legal weight or dimensions. Pre-approval must be obtained from the Chief, Transportation Permit Branch through the variance process. 1003.7 CONTAINERIZED LOADS Oversize and overweight containers are considered reducible loads and are not eligible for permits unless justified for protection of critical surfaces. (See Sea Containers, this chapter) 1003.8 CONVEYORS When loaded on a semitrailer and hauled as a load, conveyors may be transported under the normal permit conditions as any other load. The following limits will be in effect for the permit movement of all conveyor type equipment moved on its own wheels. • Width = 14’0” Max • Height = 3" vertical clearance of lowest structure on the permitted route • Length = 135’0" • Weight = Chart weight Purple • Overhang - Under study 1004-D 1004.1 DETOURS A detour is a deviation from a route and precludes night movement. The use of direct off and on ramps does not constitute a detour. However, this deviation from the route shall be authorized for daylight hours only and applies only at the structure where a height restriction exists. X - 5 1004.2 DIRECT CROSSING PERMIT Section 4006 of the Vehicle Code provides for issuance of permits by the Department for crossing of highways from one property to another by vehicles used in the normal conduct of the permittees business. This embraces direct crossings only, without longitudinal operations, and invests the Department with the sole authority to issue such permits for all public highways including city streets and county roads.

  • The Quandary of Allied Logistics from D-Day to the Rhine
    THE QUANDARY OF ALLIED LOGISTICS FROM D-DAY TO THE RHINE By Parker Andrew Roberson November, 2018 Director: Dr. Wade G. Dudley Program in American History, Department of History This thesis analyzes the Allied campaign in Europe from the D-Day landings to the crossing of the Rhine to argue that, had American and British forces given the port of Antwerp priority over Operation Market Garden, the war may have ended sooner. This study analyzes the logistical system and the strategic decisions of the Allied forces in order to explore the possibility of a shortened European campaign. Three overall ideas are covered: logistics and the broad-front strategy, the importance of ports to military campaigns, and the consequences of the decisions of the Allied commanders at Antwerp. The analysis of these points will enforce the theory that, had Antwerp been given priority, the war in Europe may have ended sooner.

  • United Nations Peacekeeping Missions Military Engineers Manual
    United Nations Peacekeeping Missions Military Engineer Unit Manual September 2015 0 Preface We are delighted to introduce the United Nations Peacekeeping Missions Military Unit Manual on Engineers—an essential guide for commanders and staff deployed in peacekeeping operations, and an important reference for Member States and the staff at United Nations Headquarters. For several decades, United Nations peacekeeping has evolved significantly in its complexity. The spectrum of multi-dimensional UN peacekeeping includes challenging tasks such as helping to restore state authority, protecting civilians and disarming, demobilizing and reintegrating ex-combatants. In today’s context, peacekeeping Missions are deploying into environments where they can expect to confront asymmetric threats from armed groups over large swaths of territory. Consequently, the capabilities required for successful peacekeeping Missions demand ever-greater improvement. UN peacekeeping operations are rarely limited to one type of activity. While deployed in the context of a political framework supporting a peace agreement, or in the context of creating the conditions for a return to stability, peacekeeping Missions may require military units to perform challenging tasks involving the judicious use of force, particularly in situations where the host state is unable to provide security and maintain public order. To meet these complex peacekeeping challenges, military components often play a pivotal role in providing and maintaining a secure environment. Under these circumstances, the deployment of UN Military Engineers can contribute decisively towards successful achievement of the Mission’s goals by providing the physical wherewithal to exist, sustain and fulfill its mandate. As the UN continues its efforts to broaden the base of Troop Contributing Countries, and in order to ensure the effective interoperability of all UN Military Engineer Units, there is a need to formalize capability standards.

  • Major Equipment
    2020 WORKING GROUP ON CONTINGENT-OWNED EQUIPMENT TRIENNIEL REVIEW OF REIMBURSEMENT RATES NATIONAL COST DATA ANNEX A - MAJOR EQUIPMENT Guidelines for submission of cost data This Annex of the national cost data package is for Member States to submit cost information on the categories of major equipment listed in the Contingent-Owned Equipment (COE) Manual (A/72/288) While the categories of equipment are generic, the existing rates are based on cost data from Member States. The comprehensive review should revisit all assumptions, particularly the relationship between Generic Fair Market Value (GFMV), maintenance rate and monthly wet lease rate. The GFMV should be based on the best estimate of the weighted average GFMV. The complete list of major equipment, including the GFMV and current reimbursement rates from the COE Manual are enclosed in tab 3 of this Annex (Major Equipment table as per Chapter 8, annex A of the COE Manual- A/72./288). The Secretariat requests that Member States collect national cost data of the generic categories of major equipment, using 2018 as the base year to complete the national cost data information in tab 2 of this Annex. To assist the Secretariat in the consolidation of the spreadsheets, it would be appreciated if all national costs could be provided in US dollars. If major equipment was purchased prior to 2018, Member States should apply its inflation/deflation rate for the intervening period between the purchase date and 2018 to bring the national cost to the base year of 2018. For example, if a Member State purchased major equipment in 2017, that Member State should multiply the cost of the items with the relevant inflation/deflation rate and add that to the national cost in 2017 to reach the national cost in 2018.

  • The Move Towards Fully Automated Military Bridging Systems R.C
    Mobile and Rapidly Assembled Structures III, C.A. Brebbia & F.P. Escrig (Editors) © 2000 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISBN 1-85312-817-1 The move towards fully automated military bridging systems R.C. Connor* & I.J. Dunn* Abstract The evolution of mobile military bridging illustrates how operational considerations and material developments are leading to more sophisticated concepts. Modular military bridge structures have traditionally been assembled and dismantled by hand using large numbers of small components, but the requirement to bridge longer spans, coupled with the need to reduce construction times and manpower has led to increased mechanisation. Semi-automated construction techniques are now well accepted in the Field Army. Remote control, teleoperation and fully autonomous bridging systems all offer operational benefits and some examples arc discussed. 1 Introduction The ability to cross both natural and man-made obstacles has always been crucial for good mobility and is vitally important for successful battlefield operations. The earliest Roman bridges used to support military operations were massive structures constructed using stone and timber. Although cast iron improved structures in the 1870s. it was only the advent of steel with its good tensile properties that dramatically improved designs. In recent years military bridges have been developed to carry heavier loads over increasingly wide gaps. The military bridge system of today employs sophisticated structures made up of modular components, designed and fabricated using advanced materials and launched using a variety of different techniques. The speed of deployment is vital in military operations. Requirements to reduce build times have led to fewer but larger modular components, typically weighing 1.5 tonne which has precluded manual construction.
