Traylor Bros., Inc.

Check out the video below to watch the recent double-T girder placement on the Third Street bridge in San Bernardino, CA. This is a portion of San Bernardino County Transportation Authority's Mount Vernon Viaduct project currently being constructed by the Traylor-Granite Construction Joint Venture in partnership with COWI. The project will replace the original Mount Vernon Avenue Viaduct with an 80-foot-wide bridge, providing reliable access to rail and mass transit facilities at the San Bernardino Santa Fe Depot as well as a connecting link to economic centers within the city for pedestrians and cyclists. #TraylorDriven

He helped monitor the pour of the moment slab on the Pinellas side of the project. This slab connects to the footing of the barrier wall, acting as a counterweight should a car come into contact with it. 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐭 Karter is studying Design Engineering Technology at Murray State University, and is an intern for our CAD Department in Evansville. He has been working on lift drawings this summer for the Sam Houston Tollway Ship Channel Bridge project, which provide dimensions and notes for the team to reference when in the field. 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝 Patrick is pursuing a Civil Engineering degree at the University of Houston, and is a returning Traylor intern. He previously worked on the Howard Frankland Bridge, and is located on the Sam Houston Tollway Ship Channel Bridge this summer. Patrick has been helping design the formwork for the upper wingwall of the M3 pylon’s lower diaphragm. #TraylorDriven Traylor Construction Group

Introducing our third group of #TCGInternWeek2024 spotlights! 𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐮𝐤 Jason is studying Civil Engineering at the University of Southern Indiana, and is currently working on the Sam Houston Tollway Ship Channel Bridge. He has been monitoring the main pylon construction this summer, which includes installing concrete temperature sensors, measuring rebar and forms, modelling components for work plans, and completing safety and waste walks. 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧 Alexandria is a Civil Engineering student at Iowa State University, and has been interning on the Mount Vernon Viaduct Replacement project this summer. She has been assisting with Abutment 1 by preparing quality control reports during rebar installation, monitoring Peri formwork installation, overseeing the stripping process for formwork, and preparing for the construction of the backwall and pedestals. 𝐉𝐞𝐛 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐬𝐨𝐧 Jeb is pursuing a degree in Civil Engineering at the University of Alabama, and has been located at the Evansville office this summer. He has been working on a 3D model of a bridge trestle layout for a future bid that illustrates the assembly, phases, and spacing of the project. 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 Hunter is a Civil Engineering student at Murray State, and is currently working on the Belle Chasse Bridge and Tunnel Replacement project. He has been helping with the settlement remediation for the approach slabs, which includes constant monitoring of settlement on both north and south approaches, calculating the total settlement on each, and crafting a work plan for remediation. #TraylorDriven Traylor Construction Group

Introducing our second group of #TCGInternWeek2024 spotlights! 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐋𝐮 Barry is a Civil Engineering student at the University of British Columbia, and is currently working on the Annacis Water Supply Tunnel project.
