I hope the photos work, taken with my phone. If there is interest I will post throughout the little project.
This is a small bridge I am helping my neighbor build. It only spans 14' over a wet weather creek. He wants to get his small Kubota across to work on a food plot, fill the feeder and such. We officially declared it a "bridge to know where"
In the photo is a view after we had located the best place, squared it up and began digging pier holes for the beams. Hit bedrock on two holes pretty shallow.
The structure it's self will be 8" 10lb I-beam (20') set a 5' apart or just inside his wheel width. The top runners will be 2 7/8" pipe set at "TBD", will depend on what my neighbor wants as decking. Choices right now are welded "catwalk" grate or treated lumber. He is leaning towards the catwalk so we will probably put a pipe every foot. So far the cost at this piont is right at $600, not to bad.
