13' span with concrete
13' span with concrete
(OP)
Hey, I have some concerns with regards to a 13 foot span over a seasonal creek, that I intend to bridge with concrete.
My concerns are, the bridge I'm building is 60-70% longer then the bridge it's being designed from, and of course one my kids getting hurt from driving over a ton of collapsing concrete in a lawn tractor. I uploaded a PDF of the basic design. I guess the question that is most pressing is the thickness, 13 feet span 42" wide, how thick does the slab need to be.
Thanks for any help.

But if you want to combine the engineering and consruction into one package, call your local precast concrete facility. They (they have engineers on call)can design something like that, cast it in their yard and deliver it to your location.

Is it because of some inferred responsibility?
