In the concourse, the tapered steel plate girders span over 90 feet and include complex double curvature geometry to sculpt a roof structure that emulates the rolling hills surrounding Sacramento.

The 443-foot-long steel plate girder bridge, which was originally constructed during Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic railroad development, underwent a $803,000-project in May.

Abstract: The end frames of steel plate girder bridges are critical elements in the transverse seismic load path of the superstructure. It has been suggested that if these cross frames were to yield ...
