Title really says it all, I've been really busy helping with five bridge designs which we are trying to complete by the end of the month. So far I've "only" been working around 60 hours but as the date approaches I think that number will get higher.
Two bridges consist of 7 horizontally curved steel plate girders. One bridge will consist of 7 steel plate girders (straight). The final two will consist of conspan rigid frame sections.
The existing abutments be cut down and remain for channel protection. The proposed footings, abutments and wingwalls with all be precast pieces which will be assemble off site before hand to make sure they are fit correctly.
Also found out that I will be part of an inspection team which will be inventory inspections for several non-NBIS bridges in RI, hopefully some near the beach this coming summer.
