This bridge will have to be
erected complete on falsework
placed near the shore on the tide
flats, and when the bridge has
been completely riveted up,
barges will be foated under it,
it will then be lifted and foated
out into the stream and to it's
final position over the piers. This
in itself will be an interesting
feature in connection with this
bridge for the reason that but
few bridges have heretofore been
erected by this method and none
of the size and weighing as much
as will this one. Single pieces
of the upper chord members for
this bridge weigh about SO tons
each.
Mr.. Hall will remain in Juneau
for several days before return
