Structural Engineering

Bridges are highly visible elements of a community’s transportation infrastructure. It is our philosophy that, in addition to being functional and economical, bridges should enhance their surroundings and that such enhancement can be accomplished through careful and sensitive design at little additional cost to the overall project. 

We supply a full range of services from preliminary feasibility studies through construction engineering and project closeout. Our staff has broad experience in all phases of bridge project implementation in both urban and rural locations. Much of this work has included bridges designed as integral elements of larger interdisciplinary projects.

“Working with the Matrix team was an absolute pleasure.  Their ability to create a signature design for Veteran’s Bridge at HARP was demonstrated by their understanding of our needs and desires.  They successfully created a destination point of the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk of Pueblo.  The functional pedestrian bridge is a beautiful monument honoring military veterans from the Pueblo region. 

Notwithstanding the seven public entities with representation on the design committee, Matrix listened, presented options and models, and then finalized the design very efficiently.  Most impressive was their ability to move our project from concept to final construction contract documents within an extremely accelerated schedule of eight weeks."
