Inspired Living Vehicular Bridge – Alpharetta, GA

Validus Senior Living Facility, Inspired Living at Alpharetta is located in the rolling hills of north Georgia. This community in particular required a strong as well as beautiful connection to all the town has to offer.

Most importantly, the road includes a significantly tall bridge. It  extends 40’ above a deep flood plain. YBC’s Decero^TM Design Team and Field Crew correspondingly faced a number of challenges with the design and on-site build. They demonstrated expert precision in the preparation and construction of the crossing.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/OeKspdJsNLU”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text responsive_align=”left”]First, the team used skewed entrances to address the curve of the road. So, a subtle camber roll, pre-drilled foundations, and retaining wall connections were essential components to the design. Secondly, the Field Crew utilized their skills to erect the bent towers. They constructed them pile by pile, 35’ in ground, and set them with concrete. As a result, the superior substructure exacted the rest of the build in order to accommodate the bridge’s superstructure.

Once complete, the bridge was, in similar fashion, customized to the Inspired Living aesthetic. With attention to a crisp yet neutral color palette, fresh wire mesh handrails, and classic peaked post caps, no detail was left untouched. Most importantly, in a community for the ages, YBC built a bridge for the generations. Timeless designed aesthetics were constructed on a foundation of hard work and expertise.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_column_text responsive_align=”left”]

Testimonial

“Baxter Construction chose York Bridge Concepts because of their outstanding reputation. Even though different materials were considered for the bridge, York Bridge Concepts was able to provide a cost effective crossing solution that was attractive and blended well with the natural environment. Their field teams were easy to work with, and followed through well with each step of the process.

I personally admired the clean design and was impressed by the skills of the construction crew that made a challenging build look almost simple. We were able to choose custom coatings, and enjoyed having more style options with a timber bridge than we would with other materials.” – Jack Hinkle, Baxter Construction[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=”20″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][mk_gallery images=”34563,34560,34561,34564,34565″ style=”masonry” item_spacing=”2″ hover_scenarios=”gradient” item_id=”1453319098-569fe3bab3839″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][mk_custom_list style=”f138″]
