Our Role

Our role on this project centered largely on a portion of the extension called Structure C which is a 3-span continuous CIP segmental bridge. This is the longest span on the Link light rail system and was needed to overcome poor soil conditions in the area. MBJ provided construction engineering for the bridge, including geometry control, form traveler analysis and modifications, falsework at the pier table and end spans, closure equipment, and many other smaller items related to the building of the bridge.
