Ingram Road Bridge

Client: City of San Antonio

Description

UNINTECH was the prime consulting firm responsible for the design and construction phase services for Ingram Road Bridge. Our engineers managed the design and construction phases, including bridge design, surveying services, bidding services, construction management and inspection, which included overseeing the budget, schedule and resources for the project.This project was named 2013 Project of the Year – Transportation by the APWA Texas Chapter.

The project involved the preparation of both preliminary engineering report (PER) and plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) for the construction of a four-lane, 1,716 ft. long bridge structure and approaches over Leon Creek and Huebner Creek to provide unflooded access to a secondary arterial. UNINTECH evaluated the FEMA 100-year water system elevation and innovatively developed multiple super-structure combination (TXL-GIRDER + Box Beam + Slab Beam) to provide a 12 ft. super-structure clearance above the FEMA 100-year WSE over the entire channel. Such design proved to be the most economic and feasible design option. Our surveyors provided topographic survey and utility location. Civil engineering services involved utility design and coordination, drainage studies, and design of storm sewer system. The project entailed abandoning and relocating the existing 24 in. concrete steel cylinder water transmission main (2,500 LF).

Our engineers coordinated with bridge beam manufacture, EMS/Fire Department, construction contractor and TxDOT to develop the most feasible Traffic Control Plan (TCP) to provide a cost-saving and construction efficient construction plan. UNINTECH conducted the review and approval of all concrete mix designs, shop drawings for bridge girder and box beam; as well as precast concrete panels, and retaining walls for mechanical stabilized and cantilever retaining walls.
