From the AB Archives: 62 years ago, AB completed the fabrication and erection of the Robert D. Fleming Bridge in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The road carries Pennsylvania Route 8 between Morningside and Sharpsburg across the Allegheny River and is a common crossing for people visiting the Pittsburgh Zoo. The Robert D. Fleming Bridge is a 16-span, 2,100-foot truss bridge that includes a four-span truss channel unit of 1,054 feet with a 400-foot center span, and a three-span girder unit of 494 feet with a 227-foot center span over an active railroad right of way. #BuildingGreatThings Southland Holdings - #bridgeconstruction #engineering

From the AB Archives: The Walt Whitman Bridge, originally built in 1957, serves as one of the primary routes for daily commuters traveling between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Southern New Jersey. The bridge spans the Delaware River from Gloucester, NJ to Philadelphia, PA, which leads drivers directly to Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Philadelphia Eagles. AB’s initial work included the fabrication and installation of the cable system on the bridge. The main cables were airspun from 37 strands of 308 wires each for a total of 11,396 wires per cable. The cable diameter is 23 3/8” not including the wrap. The wires are #6 gauge. The scope also included the saddles, cable bands, handrope, and suspender ropes supply and erection. In recent years, AB has also completed the rehabilitation of the seven-lane, two tower suspension bridge. Work included: replacement of the deck with a new partially filled steel grid on the suspension spans and anchorage spans, signal gantries, suspended span lateral brace system and all stringers as well as procurement and installation of a new movable barrier system, strengthening of floor truss and installation of new bearings and finger joints. The major equipment being utilized is a hydraulic crane, overhead cranes, a compressor and a truck attenuator. #BuildingGreatThings Southland Holdings - #bridgeconstruction #engineering #bridgebuilding #waltwhitmanbridge

In honor of the Air Force's birthday yesterday, we are going to Colorado Springs for this week's Archive! From the AB Archives: 66 years ago, AB completed Mitchell Hall, the Cadet Dining hall at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Mitchell Hall features a unique 1,150-ton roofing system, supported on 16 columns with a 266-foot span between columns. Including overhang, the roof is 308x308 feet. AB forces assembled and welded its 12-foot deep trusses on the dining hall floor slab. The roof then was raised using the concrete lift slab method, reportedly the first time this procedure was used on such a large steel structure. AB teams erected 1,443 tons of structural steel as part of the project. #BuildingGreatThings Southland Holdings - #airforceacademy #engineering #steelerecting #construction
