As part of its ongoing bridge replacement program, the West Virginia Department of Transportation contracted with Randolph Engineering to design a replacement bridge on a new alignment for the existing one-lane bridge spanning Pigeon Creek located near Delbarton, WV. The existing bridge had been rated structurally deficient due to excessive deterioration.
Founded on integral abutments the new bridge consists of a single span of 110’ utilizing grade 50W steel with a composite cast-in-place reinforced concrete deck. The bridge has a 22’ clear width and is located on a tangent alignment and on a 0-degree skew. Additional responsibilities included R/W plans, Temporary Traffic Control plans, and Utility Relocation design.
Surveying services included horizontal and vertical control as well as topographic mapping and hydraulic cross sectioning of the stream. Post design services included shop drawing review.
