Re: Advice On Building Bridge
First, you have to demo the old one....
  This shot was taken by me, 30 feet from my house's front door. (I live on a creek fed from a lake) I've got 5 weeks of shots from start to finish....great project! Last edited by JamesKB2; 05-18-2009 at 04:54 PM. |

Re: Advice On Building Bridge
A 39m truss is about 100'
How many lanes wide? Definitely need a detailed engineered drawing even to determine a price.
