In
addition to architecture we design bridges.
Excel Bridges are pedestrian grade structures suitable
for walking trails, bridal paths and bikeways. Spans
range from eight to over one-hundred feet. Two
& three span bridges are also possible. Widths
are typically six to twelve feet. These structures
are designed by an independent engineer and detailed
by our firm. Excel Bridge Corporation does
the fabricating in Santa Fe Springs, California and
delivers to any site in the USA.
Urban street
and highway bridge design projects are also produced
as team efforts with site planners, engineers and
landscape architects. The landscape designers
develop the circulation pattern and set the location
of the bridge. Our architects work closely with
the structural engineers to develop an exciting form.
The abutments, trusses and beams are designed by the
engineers, while architects work on the pedestrian
way, lighting and safety rails. The final product
is integrated into the landscape design resulting
in a pleasing experience for both the user and observer.
