PURPOSE The purpose of this bridge is to connect a part of the Wildwoods Trail to an open grassy area inac-

cessible to pedestrians. This area could be used as a play area for dogs or a future rest/exercise ar-

ea for hikers.

This is a screenshot of Google Maps showing the location of the

bridge site from the Engineering Building and how to get there.

Site Description The bridge site is located approximately 50 ft North of

the Winter Garden where Cascade Drive and Wild-

woods Trail meet within Forest Park in Portland, OR. To

find our bridge site, we walked around Forest Park as a

team and picked potential bridge sites. Eventually we

decided to do this one.

site. The indicator on the map is an

actual bridge and is not to scale.

ORGANIZATION Zachary Schorr was our Project Manager for the B2P Bridge Project. His role

was to decide when we met and where we met for the project. Zachary also

did the left abutment calculations and provided transportation to the bridge

site. Dashton Peccia took our meeting minutes and was in charge of com-

municating with one another to keep us up to date with our project. Dashton

also created the design figure for our bridge. Anderson Ouriquez did majority

of our data calculations. Chedan Pascual was the main poster designer but

the rest of the team had their input as well. When it came time to survey the

bridge site, Zachary used the Abney Level while Chedan held the stick at the

station point and the end side of the measuring tape. Anderson held the be-

ginning of the measuring tape and was responsible for evenly measuring the

other survey points for the bridge. Dashton recorded our data and helped us

keep a straight line while we measured the other survey points. We used

Mathcad for our calculations and Microsoft Publisher to create the poster.

Conclusion Over the course of the project our team developed strong communication skills, a variety of planning and development

skills, and experience working together as a group. Not only did the project provide our team members with these skills

but it also provided helpful insight on what working on projects that can be applied to real life situations can be like.

Some real-life applicable knowledge that our group gleaned includes the use of software such as Mathcad and Excel,

and knowledge of how to use surveying equipment such as an Abney Level or Auto Level.

This is a picture of our group surveying our bridge

site. As you can see, we used the Abney Level.

Figure 3 (Above)

This is our design figure for our bridge. This design figure was created by Dashton Peccia. Included in the

design figure is the high water point, left & right anchors, left & right abutments, span length, and angle

to horizontals.

Figure 6 (Above)

This is a picture of our calculations. We included only the Cable Analysis Calculations and the Left Abut-

ment Calculations because we couldn’t fit the Right Abutment Calculations in the poster. The Right Abut-

ment Calculations are exactly like the Left-Abutment Calculations except a few angles were changed due

to being the same type of Tier (1G60) but the angles to horizontal are different between the two abut-

ments.
