Field Performance of Timber Bridges 1. Teal River Stress-Laminated Deck Bridge
The Teal River bridge was constructed in late 1989 in Sawyer County, WI, as a part of the demonstration timber bridge program of the USDA Forest Service. The bridge is a stress-laminated deck structure with a 32.5-ft length and a 23.7-ft width. The design is unique in that it is the first known stress-laminated timber bridge in the United States to be constructed of full-pan glued-laminated timber beams, rather than the traditionally used sawn lumber laminations.
