New Bridge Renderings

These were both generated in sketchup to give an idea of the aesthetic of each bridge concept.  The second concept of a stone bridge (basically a big culvert) was brought back by John Moore (grandpa).

This is the wood truss design.  We can also place the trusses underneath the bridge.  I thought it would be nice to have hand rails, and makes the bridge look taller.



This is the stone design.  Would be built out of poured concrete, then filled in, then clad with stones. Obviously the grass leading up to the bridge would be more gradual and smoothed out, but its a pain to do that on this program.

Below is a bigger (higher) version of the stone bridge, which would cost a lot more to build.
