Mason Grand Apartment Complex
A new Ohio apartment complex needed a pedestrian bridge for it’s walking trails that was maintenance free and affordable.
Greene County, OH
In 2012, flooding and erosion forced the Greene County Parks to replace a wooden bridge that connects Rotary Park, Philips Park, and the Beavercreek Wetlands Preserve. The Park Service contracted Axcess to design a permanent solution for this location that would not need to be replaced in the future. Project requirements included:
To meet these requirements, Axcess designed a weathering steel truss bridge with a solid surface fiberglass deck. The design work included raising the bridge’s elevation so it sat above the flood plain, improving access and reducing water damage. This maintenance-free solution saves on upkeep costs for the Park Service and will last for years to come.
BRIDGE SPAN: 45 feet
BRIDGE WIDTH: 6 feet
BRIDGE WEIGHT: 12,000 lb
A new Ohio apartment complex needed a pedestrian bridge for it’s walking trails that was maintenance free and affordable.
A solid surface fiberglass deck made this pedestrian bridge a safe and beautiful addition to walking trails in a new Indiana housing development.
The Jackson Grant community has been working on an expansive walking path for the past several years as it continues to build homes in the development.
With repairs and improved stability, a homeowner’s bridge will be able to withstand the forces of flooding water and debris for years to come.
