| Additional Information: | 2023: Structure P-50-0091 is a single-span pony truss bridge of riveted steel construction. It carries Riley Road across the north fork of the Jump River in a single north-south span. The one-lane bridge measures 60 feet in length, with a 20 foot-wide, cast-in-place concrete deck. The bottom chord is supported by steel floor beams, with timber abutments and angled timber wing walls. The bridge’s design is commonly referred to as a “Warren truss with verticals,” as vertical members bisect the equilateral triangles along the top chord. Members are held in place with both square-head and circular-head rivets. A steel pedestrian railing is located on the inside length of each elevation. pony truss bridge |
