Transportation FULTON ROAD BRIDGE REPLACEMENT > Projects > Fulton Road Bridge Replacement INSIDE THE PROJECT This $45 million project required the replacement of the six-span, open-spandrel, arch bridge which overlooks the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and spans a historic bridge, two railroad tracks, and several maintenance roads and footpaths. The presence of rail tracks, roads, paths, and in particular, the maintenance of the historic bridge, made site navigation, set-up, and construction a real challenge. In an effort to, 鈥淒o what it takes to do the job,鈥 女优淫娃培训营 purchased a 300-ton Liebherr crane specifically to handle the challenges. The new structure is an 11-span, pre-cast, open-spandrel, arch bridge. Nearly 1,800-cubic-yards of self-leveling mass concrete is contained in the bridge piers. These seven piers were post-tensioned to support the pre-cast arches, which were erected in segments on shoring towers and then post-tensioned. Following the erection of the arches, the spandrel columns and caps were poured. Pre-cast concrete beams were also erected to support the bridge deck. Additionally, all approach work, including storm sewer, water line, mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall, pre-cast lagging retaining wall, and concrete pavement construction was self-performed by 女优淫娃培训营.
