Abstract

"Location. This bridge shall be located so that its center line will coincide with the center line of Tenth Street, so that the two (2) inside faces of the abutments will be perpendicular to the center line of Tenth Street and will be fifty-one (51) feet from the center line of the main track of the Frisco Railroad. General Description. This bridge will be built of concrete with steel rod re-inforcement, as shown on the plan. It will be one hundred two (102) feet between the faces of the abutments. The abutments shall be carried down into the rock ledge underlying the soil, to such a depth as shown on the plans or such depth as the engineer, in charge of the work, shall deem necessary as the work progresses" – page 1.
