Ordered that Clerk advertise for
bids for refiooring the Suspension
Bridge at town. Said bids to be sub |
mitted 70 this Board at its November
meeting. The Board to furnish the |
necessary material on site Of bridge.
To the Honorable Board Of Supervfs- |
ors, Claiborne County, Miss.
Gentlemen;
In making my report on condition
1f roads and bridges for the quarter
Just ending win say that | have in
spected same, and have also spent |
time in looking after the |
york on the Two-Mile Bridge, and I
ind that the present ofreman for the |
Virginia Bridge Co. is pushing this |
work to completion and it looks as il |
he bridge would be finished before
he end of the year.
The sheet piling was driven to full |
hirty feet depth and dreged out to |
! depth of more than 2S feet below |
op Of sheet piling, and the long piles
inside the piers were all with one ex-
eption driven to their full depth of
. feet that one being cut off less two |
eet due to splitting.
The gravel and sand used in MAX |
ng the concrete was washed thor
lughly but not screened. Think the |
'alanee used in making the piers a.
love water should be screened, as con-
raet states.
The proper number Of reinforcing
DDS We're used and the joints broken, |
apped and clipped as agreed. And |
n addition large girder that was /
rom old bridge was inserted in the
enter of each pier extending to |
Q feet above and below the tops Of /
he sheet pilings another smaller grid
r is to be inserted up above the first
ne, thus greatly reinforcing the pier |
nd making it almost half steel.
l have assessed such fines against
ny road contractor as l thought Just.
See his bill for fines).
am now about to be called away |
or an indefinite length Of time, and /
ope that nothing will come up in my
bsence that can not be disposed OF |
Without my personal attention
However, matters over which have /
9 control demand my attention else
there, and must go.
Respectfully submitted,
L. B. ALLEN,
Supervisors District No. One.
