Bridge Documentation

View Archived National Bridge Inventory Report - Has Additional Details and Evaluation

This bridge is an example of a structure type that is uncommon in Indiana, the concrete through girder. Among concrete through girders anywhere, this bridge is particularly unusual and significant. First, the bridge is multi-span, and most examples of this bridge type are short, single spans of under 60 feet. The bridge is also constructed on a slight grade, also unusual for this bridge type. Finally, the bridge is fairly high up in the air for a bridge of this type. Concrete through girders, which place the superstructure above the road were well-suited and usually used for low crossings with little clearance below the bridge. Although abandoned and standing with some deterioration, the bridge is unaltered and has good historic integrity. The bridge has articulated floorbeams that support the concrete slab deck, as opposed to floorbeams integral with the deck found on some concrete girder bridges.
