My bridge under construction in Florida. 30 inch concrete piles are in a temporary steel template. Templates are used to install the pile plumb and in the correct position. These are driven into the ground using a diesel impact hammer, striking the pile 1,000s of times.
One of the first vessels to transit the Limited Access Channel at the Francis Scott Key Bridge. Gives a sense of scale of just how large the Dali is.
This is an 880,000 pound crane pick at the Francis Scott Key Bridge. Less than 1 min explainer video by a Professional Engineer and Bridge Designer. Next video is in the works.
How it started vs How it's going. Francis Scott Key Bridge edition.
The 35' depth limited access channel at the Francis Scott Key Bridge recovery will open ahead of schedule. Vessels will transit on the left side of this photo starting April 25. This is wonderful news and demonstrates the quality work being done.
This hydraulic grabber is about to put in some serious work at the Francis Scott Key Bridge recovery. It's self weight is 400,000 pounds and it can extract over 2,000,000 pounds. The capacity will be limited by the crane that wields it. I cannot wait to see it in action.
New tunnel completed in Virginia. One more to go after the tunnel boring machine makes a U turn. Awesome.
A new temporary channel has opened at the Francis Scott Key Bridge. Vessels will need to sail near the electrical towers. The Fort Carrol temporary alternate channel is 300 foot wide with a vertical clearance of 135 feet and a controlling depth of 20 feet. Good progress!
Half section of the Francis Scott Key Bridge truss. Top of the bridge is on the left in photo. Looks to have been extracted from the mudline. Chesapeake 1000 doing great work.
the feedback and response that i have gotten on my video is really incredible. thank you. will keep more videos coming.

Work Zone progress at the Francis Scott Key Bridge. 1. Chesapeake 1000 clearing steel from temp channel. 2. Weeks 533 picking containers from Dali. 3. Deck being crushed and dredged. This reduces load and provides access to remove the second half of the truss.
Clamshell dredge removing the wreckage from the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The vertical legs seen rising behind the crane are called spuds. Spuds are used to anchor the crane barge to resist lateral forces created by wind and water.
More sections of the steel truss getting removed. When the biggest crane is putting in work it is a sign of progress being made.
We will rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
A huge 440 ton section of the Francis Scott Key Bridge being transported. It was partially submerged prior to lifting. Steel truss section is so large it is being floated to disposal instead than placed on a barge. The scale of this operation is incredible.
Largest crane pick seen so far for the Key Bridge. Full depth section of the truss. Top and bottom chords. This is with the Chesapeake 1000 ton crane. First pick since mobilizing on site?

Big boys comfortable moving through now. Dredgers got the channel down to 38’ depth— solid 3-feet of keel clearance. Nice to see RoRo’s moving, today containers will transit. @USACEHQ, @USCG command and control with @DonjonMarine, @resolvemarine, @SkanskaUSA, @CashmanDredging
hands down my best work
@MattDursh Left side of where you are located in the video could lend itself to a wide margin for notes, data points and a clean background of yourself, leaving the rest for video itself. Just a graphical and organizational suggestion. Otherwise it’s a fascinating topic.

@MattDursh There is quite a story about filming that scene & it was highly engineered, yet did not fall at first. The bridge (originally a trestle) was highly prepped for the scene. I thing it was done in Oregon of a logging railroad there. There were many still operating at the time.
Way to go!!!

@MattDursh @x1heavy @johnkonrad Dolphins I guess absorb the crash energy, like at Washington State Ferries docks.
@MattDursh Thanks! It's been awhile since I worked on marine structural projects so forgetting things.... The project I was referring to looked like the deflection from vertical was not deliberate (just enough to be noticeable). Not batter piles. Would have to go digging to find photos.
@MattDursh It must be exciting to see your design being constructed.
