"When the history of our time is written, posterity will know
us not by a cathedral or temple, but by a bridge."
- Montgomery Schuyler, 1877writing about the Brooklyn Bridge

Girder Bridges• Steel or Concrete• I-Girders or Box Girders• Easy to fabricate• Easy to erect• Replaceable slab• Redundancy• Unobstructed motorist view• Longer spans require deeper sections• Longer spans may require temporary falsework
for erection• Easy to widen in the future

Truss Bridges• Economical for longer spans vs. Girder Bridges• Thru Truss vs. Deck Truss• Prevalent for Oregon crossings 1920s-1930s• Thru truss allows reduced section under the deck• Potentially higher maintenance and inspection
costs• Difficult to widen in the future

Cable-Stayed Bridges• Successor to the suspension bridge for spans up
to 2000-ft• Greater stiffness• Steel vs. Concrete• Roadway deck integral to structure• Cantilevered construction helps environmental
impacts• Difficult to widen in the future

Movable Bridges• Low rise bridge shortens the overall crossing
length• Well known bridge type • Difficult to achieve desired bridge aesthetics • Marine traffic typically has priority over bridge
traffic• Higher maintenance and inspection costs• Difficult to widen in the future• Poor seismic performance
