P AN IRON BRIDGE RECOMMENDED TO CosT $103,800—a ‘BOARD OF ENGINEER OFFICERS APPOINTED TO CON- SIDER THE QUESTION. Col. Hains, in his report to the chief of engin- eera on the proposed bridge over the Eastern Branch, at the'toot of Pennsylvania avenue, 8ay3 that after hearing the views of parties interested in the bridge, and from an examination of several lines, he 1s of the opinion that the one making an angle of about six degrees to the southward of the extension of Pennsylvania avenue will bethe best. ‘This, he is informed, 1s the line selected by Capt. Fred. Mahan, Corps of Engineers, when the sub- Ject of an appropriation was under consideration. ‘Three other lines were surveyed, but, from an en- gineering point of view, the shortest line would be the best, as it would also be the cheapest, its direction being more nearly perpendicular to the axis of the stream, but the Toute of travel wouldnot be as convenient to the people as that of a Une more nearly in prolonga- ion of Pennsylvania avenue, The bridge ts to oc- cupy a position between two existing bridges; one at Benning’s and the other at the navy yard. It will be nearer the latter than ‘the for- mer in any case. It would seem, there- fore, judicious to locate it so that the eastern terminus may approach a point midway between the two. ‘The majority of the people con- sulted in the matter seemed to be of the same opinion. In view of these facts, | Col. fains recommends the location in a direc tion almost in a prolongation of Penn- sylvania avenue. On this line it would be What is Known asa skew bridge; that ts, the plers or supports would not be at right angles to he axis of the-bridge. If this line be adopted the length of the stream from high-water mark on one side to high-water mark on the other Would be 1,705 feet, or, inclusive of approaches, the total length would bé2,235 feet, ‘The eastern approach starts from the center of the circle at the inter- section of Kentucky and Pennsylvania avenues, and crosses the B, and P.R. R. at ahigh grade, ‘The grade of the ‘track ‘is about 14 feet above mean low tde, so that an over-grade crossing will De necessary. "The company request a clear head room of 20 ‘feet in order that a man standing on a freight car can clear the bridge. A clear head room of 18 feet would seem to be ample for all practical purposes, and it is recom- mended that une grade be fixed on this basis at about 35 feet above low tide. ‘The Baltimore and Potomac Ratiroad contemplates some change in the alignment of its road. Should the change, be Inade the new line will be about 150 feet southeast Of the old line and at about the same grade. The question arises whether the expense of this cro3s- {ng should not be borne in whole or in part by the rafiroad company, and it is submitted for decision of the Secretary of War before the construction 1s begun. ‘The next question to determine Was ‘THE PROPER WIDTH the bridge should have. It was evident from the beginning that the amount of money available was, too small to build as wide a bridge as was wanted. A roadway of at least 24 fest is deemed necessary, and a footwalk is also needed on each side of the bridge which should be 4 feet wide. The least Width of the bridge on this basis 1s therefore 32 feet, and it 1s recommended that this width be fixed as the least the bridge should have. It 13, ne ‘that a bridge constructed in this locality shodld not obstruct the tidal flow in the Eastern Branch. The main channel of the river 1s quite ‘narrow, being only about 250 feet wide at this place, and, so far as navization 1s, concerned, is of little use, sand scows being the only class of vessels that navigate 1t; but in Tespect to its effect on that part of the river be- ‘ow the Davy-yard and by reason of its influence on the sanitary condition of the city, it 1s neces- sary to keep open a lange tidal cross Section. It is, believed that a Width of at least 1,000 feet. should be retained for the tidal flow. In ‘estimating the cost of the bridge and its approaches that part which crosses the Baltimore and Potomac Ratl- road is included. It 1s thought under the charter of this road, however, this part of the structure should be built by thé company. ‘THE MOST SUITABLE KIND OF A BRIDGE Would be a deck bridge of iron trusses, carried on stone plers, with embankment approaches on each side, and through @ span over the railroad of the Western approach, ‘The estimated cost of such a structure 18 $113,690, This.estimate 1s for a bridge ‘32 feet wide, without a draw. If in the future a draw span should be needed ‘one couid be estab- Mshed on the pters of the proposed structure with Brie sacitnas cost. This estimate ts, tar tn ‘excess of the appropriation, which 1s $1 nl pete acre juestion, The estimate for a similar bridge feet wide, with an 18-foot roadway and 16 foot sidewalk, 1s $138,000, a sum also in excess of the appropriation, ‘The latter 1s not recom- mended under any circumstances. ‘The estimate 4s givén to show that an tron deck bridge, which 4s really the most suitable for the locality, cannot be built for the amount appropriated by Congress. If the tron trusses be replaced by wood the cost. of the bridge could be reduced to $148,500. Such a structure 1s almost inadmissible, however, as the tendency of the wooden bridge is to deteriorate, and its ilability to destruction are arguments of such @ cogent nature agulnst its adoption that It Would not be recommended if tt could be bullt for the appropriation. THE NEXT BEST CONSTRUCTION after the tron truss on stone piers is a combination. of tron truss on stone piers and fron trestles on piles or groups of piles, ‘The western approach tobe iron trestles a distance of about 260 feet, then a section of iron-truss bridge, 500 feet In length, across the deepest part of the river. Then ‘a section of iron trestles of 700 feet in length over the snoal part, ‘Then an earthen embankment 685 feet in length. The estimated cost of such a structure, 32 feet wide, with a 24-foot roadway and two sidewalks each 4 feet, 1s $103,800. It will be seen that a bridge can be Duilt on the Une proposed for the amount of the appropriation, and though it Would not be as handsome a struct ure as on€ would wish to see it can be made dut bie and substantial. Col, Hains therefore recom- mends that he be authorized to advertise for plans and proposals, ‘RECOMMENDATIONS BY THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS. Gen. Duane, in submitting the report to the Sec- retary of War, endorses it as follows: “In view of the importance ot the subject and the necessity for careful consideration of all the questions con- nected therewith, 1t is deemed advisable that the plan and location of the bridge in question be re- ferred to a board of engineer officers for examina- ‘on andreport, and 1t1s accordingly recommended that a board to consist of the following ofticers be assembled for the pi Col, J.
