Take 35,000 linear ft.(10,668 m) of steel pipe, add1 million lbs. (453,592 kg)of rebar, mix in 10,500 cu.yds. (8,027 cu m) of concreteand viola! You have replaceda 60-year-old bridge with amodern design-build classic.Reed & Reed Inc.,
Woolwich, Maine, is thedesigner and builder of TheVeteran’s Memorial BridgeReplacement Project, ownedby the Maine Department ofTransportation. The existing Veteran’s
Memorial Bridge, whichcarries U.S. Route 1 acrossthe Fore River from Portlandto South Portland, Maine,was built in the early 1950s.The bridge currently serves10,000 vehicles per day andis a major connecting routefrom Interstate 295 to thebusiness district and working waterfront of Portland.Reed & Reed, which has had a stellar reputation in the
construction and contracting industry since 1929, hasworked with top designer architects to construct what willsurely become a modern classic in Maine.According to Reed & Reed Project Manager Charlie
Guerette, the $63.12 million project will be finished on time,on budget and is 85 percent complete at this writing.
Span’s 100-Year Lifespan“We are teamed with TY Lin International to complete
design and construction of the new bridge and the removalof the existing bridge,” said Guerette. “The project wasawarded on a ‘best value’ to the owner system where all pro-posals were judged in five different areas for technical score.The five evaluation criteria were Design Concept; ContextSensitive Solutions; Project Management and QualityProgram; Maintenance and Protection of Traffic/Project
Sequencing; and Public Information Plan. “The basis of the award [was finalized] in total lump sum
price/technical score,” added Guerette. “Reed & Reed’s pro-posal was the lowest lump sum price and the highest techni-cal score.” The company’s lump sum bid was for $63 million.Guerette added that the scope of the project is to replace
the existing bridge with a new bridge designed to last a cen-tury — a span, that is, with a 100-year lifespan. The totallength of the new bridge is 1610 ft. (490 m).“The new bridge is a segmental precast concrete super
structure, consisting of parallel trapezoidal concrete box sec-tions, approximately 40 feet wide with a three-foot cast inplace deck section between the boxes to create one uniformdeck surface, approximately 83 feet wide. The deck will sup-port two lanes of traffic in each direction and a separatedmulti-purpose lane for bikes and pedestrians.

“We have six piers in the river, spaced at 250 feet with thetwo abutment spans slightly shorter,” he added. “The riverpiers consist of pipe pile supported cast in place, concretefootings and pier shafts, constructed with sheet pile coffer-dams and concrete seal placements.”According to Reed & Reed’s Project Manager, the histo-
ry of the project has gone like this, thus far:• Proposals were submitted in November 2009
• Technical score summaries and pricing were opened inJanuary 2010 and the project was awarded in February 2010.• Work began on construction of the new bridge in August
2010.A terrible Maine winter — one of the worst New England
has seen in 20 or more years — did not deter the Reed &Reed crews.“We worked through the winter of 2010, into 2011, con-
structing river piers, the Portland abutment and some MSE
retaining wall. We began erecting precast segments in Mayof 2011,” stated Guerette.Pier and abutment construction was completed in July
2011.The segmental erection will be completed on Nov. 10,
2011. Guerette added that 361 segmental bridge sections have
been erected in just seven months.“This winter, we will complete the concrete curb and cen-
ter closure concrete on the bridge deck and be ready formembrane and paving in the spring of 2012,” he said.The scheduled date to open the new bridge is July 2012.“Contract completion date is Dec. 31, 2011. This will
leave us six months to remove the existing bridge and demo-bilize the site,” said the Project Manager.
Expanded Crews, Long HoursGuerette said there will be no 2011-2012 winter shut
down for crews, no matter how deep the snow or fierce theMaine winds blow.“We have worked one shift, mainly 9-10 hours per day,
five days a week. We had no winter shut down during thewinter of 2010 and don’t plan to shut down in 2011,” said theboss. “The first eight months of the project, we had a staff ofapproximately 25 field crew and seven office support peopleworking primarily on bridge substructure.“In May of 2010, as segmental erection began, and the
substructure work continued, our crew grew to a high pointof 65 field crew and 15 office support. Our current staffincludes 38 in the field and 12 in support of field operations,”said Guerette.Primarily, he added, Reed & Reed is using Manitowoc
16000 440-ton (399 t) and 999 275-ton (249 t) crane models,both barge mounted, to erect pre-cast segments. Thesecranes are both owned by Reed & Reed.The formidable steel of the project — 35,000 linear ft. of
steel pipe pile, was supplied by Skyline Steel. The 1 millionlbs. of rebar was furnished by HAr-Mac Rebar, and the10,500 cu. yds. of concrete was supplied by DragonProducts.In addition, 8,000 tons (7,257 t) of asphalt will be put
down, with work to be completed by Pike Industries. There

You Never Regret Buying Quality.
PRECISIONSelf-Leveling Shoes
Make life easier for the operator. Because theshoes level themselves, he can simply ‘drop and
go’ without worrying about keeping the boxexactly level. This prevents premature wearingof the shoe. They also absorb impacts much
more easily than fixed shoes.
Sectional Steel Trip EdgeThe cutting blade trips in 2’ independent sec-
tions, which keeps more of the blade in contactwith the snow if an obstacle is hit.
STRENGTHBraced Side Panels
A plow that is not adequately braced will quicklyfail when driven into a snowbank or curb. The
400 stands up to those inevitable hits.Torsion Spring Trip Mechanism
Rugged torsion springs on the STE model pro-vide exceptional stiffness for attacking even
hard-packed snow while riding back fully oversolid obstacles.
High Density RubberRubber Edge models feature blades crafted
from the toughest compound in the industry.

Reed & Reed Leads $63MBridge Replacement Jobalso will be 1.25 million lin-ear ft. (381,000 m) of posttensioning cable and 9,660linear ft. (2,944 m) of posttension bars, both suppliedby DSI-USA of Chicago. Another major supplier
was Unistress Corporationof Pittsfield, Mass., whichbuilt the precast segments.These segments were built inits plant in Pittsfield andtrucked to the job site. Guerette was quick to
credit his team and crew for the splendidwork done so far, completing almost 90 per-cent of the work on the new bridge, includ-ing:• Project Superintendent Jay Whittemore
– who has 30 years with Reed & Reed• Segmental Erection Superintendent Tom
Reed — 4th generation family member, whohas put in 30 years with his company.• Concrete Superintendent Roger Langley • Assistant Project Manager Dustin
Littlefield • Quality Control Manager Charlie
Seavey • Post Tensioning and Grouting Foreman
Chris Bishop, who has a quarter century atReed & Reed• Substructure/piling foreman Larry
Tomon, another 25-year-man• Segmental erection foreman Dana
Lagasse, with 15 years on the job“We have an awesome crew with experi-
ence, intelligence and willingness to handleany challenge encountered,” said the proudGuerette.This is the first precast segmental bridge
that Reed & Reed has ever built, added theProject Manager, but they were ready asplanned. “We did gain a lot of experience working
on the Penobscot Narrow Bridge (2005-2007). That was a cast-in-place segmental,cable-stayed bridge in Verona, Maine,” hesaid. What made R&R the best choice for this
project, beyond the bid, Guerette explained,was that, “We had control of the designprocess. We worked closely with TY Lin anddesigned a bridge we knew we could buildefficiently. We submitted a good design, andhave an excellent history of completingcomplex bridge jobs on time and on budget,”added Guerette.Reed & Reed also gave credit to its sub-
contractors on the project, including: RJGrondin of Gorham, Maine, which is doing
the earth work on the approaches to thebridge and AD Electric of Sabattus, Maine,the electrical and lighting subcontractor.
About the CompanyReed & Reed was founded in 1928. The
thriving contracting and heavy iron con-struction company employs about 200 peo-ple.Beyond building and rebuilding bridges,
highways and roads, it is noted for its Marinebuilding work, wind power generation andsolid diversification.Asked to name the company’s top eight
projects over the past decade, Reed & Reedidentified:• Kibby Mountain Wind Power — Eustis,
Maine• Penobscot Narrows Bridge — Verona,

300 ft (91 m), tied concrete arch.• Back River Bridge — Arrowsic, Maine• Rollins Mountain Wind Power —
Lincoln, Maine• Stetson Mountain Wind Power —
Danforth, Maine• Deer Isle Bridge Foundation Rehab —
Deer Isle, MaineSo, what sets Reed & Reed apart to com-
plete another difficult, Maine, multi-winterproject on time and on budget?“We have excellent experience and job
knowledge,” said Guerette. “We have theright equipment for the job, and a crew witha great attitude and desire to complete theproject safely and productively on sched-ule.”For more information, visit www.reed-
