The eight-mile specification calls for a load deflection of L/800, a deck depth of 5.
5 inches, a panel depth of 22 inches and a panel weight of 26 psf

The Composite Advantage assessment focused on the underside of the bridge, where seam, panel-to-panel and panel-to-panel adjoining areas were examined
