RMA Presents “Major Bridges in North America – Design and Construction Challenges”
Mike Abrahams discussed highlights from his career as a structural engineer on several major American bridge construction projects. The Fremont Bridge in Portland, Oregon made history by including the lift of the central span into place using 32 hydraulic jacks, at the time the heaviest lift ever completed. Closer to home, Mike described the replacement of the Kosciuszko Bridge of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway between 2016 and 2019.
