Exceptional job engineering pays off on bridge construction
Template for piles, steel form that permits placing of concrete in dry, in 60 ft of water, and new technique for placing loose-jointed continuous girders were used in construction of Willis Bridge over Lake Texoma; concreting steel form comprises hydraulic push-pull rams which place forms, hold them watertight for concreting, and then open for stripping; 200 ft continuous plate girder spans were erected by steel falsework, placed on barges.
