BACKGROUND: The City trail construction crew will move from Niokaska Creek Trail to the Clabber Creek Trail in late summer of 2020. The next phase of Clabber Creek Trail construction will extend from the Gary Hampton Softball Complex and Holcomb School east across Deane Solomon to Truckers Drive as shown on the attached map. DISCUSSION: The Clabber Creek Trail will cross a small tributary west of Truckers Drive that is identified as a streamside protected stream. To protect this stream, this bridge will be 50 feet in length to completely span the waterside streamside protection zone and leave it untouched. The bridge will be prefabricated from maintenance free weathering steel with arched railings to match other bridges in the Fayetteville trail system. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: Five bidders responded to the request for formal bids on July 17th, 2020 and Art Thureson Inc. was the lowest responsive bidder at $40,100 for the 50-foot-long bridge. Funds are budgeted for the purchase of the bridge from the trail development program for the Clabber Creek Trail.

Assumptions that vehicles only travel down the center of the bridge or that the vehicle load is a uniform line load will not be allowed. A vehicle impact allowance is not required. 3.4 Wind Load: Bridge shall be designed for a wind load of 35 pounds per square foot on the full vertical projected area of the bridge as if enclosed. The wind load shall be applied horizontally at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the structure. The wind loading shall be considered both in the design of the lateral load bracing system and in the design of the truss vertical members, floor beams and their connections. The effect of forces tending to overturn structures shall be calculated assuming that the wind direction is at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the structure.

Corners of the "box" backing, made from four plates, shall be welded and ground to match the inside corner radii of the chords. The solid plate option shall require a weep hole either in the chord wall above the "high side" of the plate or in the plate itself. In all types of backing, the minimum fit -up tolerances for backing must be maintained at the corners of the tubes as well as across the "flats". BEARINGS: 8.1 Bearing Devices: The bridge manufacturer shall be responsible for the design of the bearing devices.
