Past Projects

  • Tampa-Hillsborough Crosstown Expressway (Florida)

    The project consists of two viaducts through Tampa as part of the Tampa Crosstown Expressway. One is 6,837 feet in length while the other is 17,032 feet. The superstructure is precast segmental concrete erected by the span-by-span method. The principal span length used is 145 feet. Project manager for the construction engineering tasks that included shop drawing production, erection equipment design, analysis of the structure for construction loads, tendon elongations, development of the Geometry Control Plan, generation of all the casting sets, instruction in use of the casting software and problem solving at the casting site. Also included was the development of the erection manual for the loading of segments, stressing of tendons and launching of the erection girders.

  • I-95/I-295 Interchange (Florida)

    Garcia Bridge Engineers oversaw the development of all shop drawings for all the precast segments for the $100 million project. The project contains 3 curved precast segmental ramp structures ranging in length from 2,010’ to 3,574'. The tightest curvature has a radius of 1,900’. The structures were been constructed by the balanced cantilever method with cranes.

  • Roslyn Viaduct (New Jersey)

    The structure is a twin roadway facility with an overall length of 2,116 feet. The structure is comprised of 2 twin precast segmental box girders with a combined width of 78’-3”. The bridge was erected by the balanced cantilever using an overhead, self-launching gantry. The substructure foundations are supported by drilled shafts. The piers are also precast segmental construction. Garcia Bridge Engineers provided technical support for the analysis of the bridge deck for construction loads such as segment weight and straddle carrier weight; computation of steel pipe bends for superstructure external tendons and pier tendons looping in the foundation, and supervision of shop drawing production for special segments with deviators.
