Once in awhile we are requested to perform along side of the best in our industry. The Cannelville Road Bridge was one of those stories. In Muskingum County we built a bridge that uses an innovative press-brake-formed steel tub girder (PBTG) system. We are proud of our technical prowess and innovation. We always build schedules that attempt to be met or superseded. However, the Cannelville project exceeds even our normal expectations. Ahead of schedule is always a good standard to set. Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance Cannelville Road Bridge Case Study showcases our work and process.

Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance Cannelville Road Bridge Case Study

We are proud of this project and thankful for the team at Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance for their case study on this project. The Cannelville Road Bridge Case Study exemplifies what we aim to do on every project. The case study by Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance, in its full, is found here. Alternatively, click here to view it in PDF format. Here is a summary of the case study findings of this bridge:

• First of its kind in the state
• Completed ahead of schedule in just 26 days
• Service life of more than 100 years
• Consists of modular shallow trapezoidal boxes fabricated from cold-bent structural steel plate
• After the plate is formed, a thin lightweight deck is bolted to the girder, making it a modular unit for quick assembly on location

Cannelville Case Study Details

This study showcases how we manufacture and deliver a bridge to the project location. We use trucks and deliver the prefabricated half-width modules ready to assemble. These 31 ton modules placed and setup in about 22 minutes. Think legos, but stronger. View our infographic to learn more.

Cannelville Road Bridge Project Highlights

• The fabrication process takes place offsite
• Both PBTG/SPS modules are set on the abutments in just 22 minutes
• Each PBTG module with the SPS deck and TL-2 crash barriers weigh only 31 tons
• The project completes ahead of schedule
• The new bridge is set in place by an Ohio crew and has a service life of more than 100 years
• This project opens the door for future PBTG projects in Muskingum County as well as additional counties and states
