The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1894-09-15

Inc Gillette horZOg COS plans SHOW
a large percentage of material both stee
and wood over either of the others
Their plans will allow, at any time il
the future, the substitution of steel fol
timber in the upper chord without
changing the steel members now put
in.
The numbers and length of panels in
the several plans for Combination
| Bridge are the same as for steel spans
viz:
The height of truss in Gillette Herzog
plan is 30 feet in both the others 80 #
The King Bridge Co. show only 8
panels and less material than either of
the other two plans.
The fact that the Gillette Herzog Co.
includes painting and surfacing in
their bid and that their material in
truss is largely in excess of either of
the other plans makes their bid the
lowest in money, and it is the best in
design.
Statement &C" shows the compare
tive areas of steel and wood shown by
each plan.
BRIDGE AT PARMA.
We would recommend that spans of
not less than one hundred feet be used
and think the best plan offered is the
one by Gillette Herzog Co. which pro-
vides for span of 120 feet each COM
bination truss with crib piers, 81 piles
in each pier cased with 3 inch plank
and cribs filed with stone. The casing
on the body of the piers will have to be
placed inside instead of outside of the
piling and provisions will have to be
made for thoroughly tying the piling
together 80 as to sustain the weight of
the filing which tying is not shown on
the plan, but is stated by party repre-
senting the Company to be an omission
(unintentionaD on the part of the
draughtsman.
