Halls River BridgeIn this episode of The Structural Engineering Channel podcast, we talk to Steven Nolan, P.E., a bridge engineer at the Florida Department of Transportation. Steven talks about the Halls River Bridge project (HRB project), which is a project that was recently constructed in Florida that displayed 12 items that were the first of a kind for a bridge. Many of these firsts were related to new and innovative materials and technology.

Here Are Some of the Questions We Ask Steven in This Episode:

  • Can you provide us with an overview of the Halls River Bridge project?
  • Could you please tell us about the funding of the project?
  • Was it mostly the Hybrid-Composite Beams (HCB) that were used during the replacement, or were carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and stirrups also used?
  • What are the advantages of using CFRP and GFRP instead of the epoxy coating rebar?
  • From a design perspective, what does using a new material entail?
  • Are you expecting maintenance on this type of bridge?
  • What were the construction challenges you had on this project?

Here Are Some of the Key Points Discussed About the Halls River Bridge Project:
