DESCRIPTION OF WORK AND SERVICES
SECTION - 1. WORK LOCATION
The subject overpass and roadway approaches are located within the'city
limits of Pueblo, Colorado on 24th Street between Tuxedo Blvd. and Cheyenne Ave.,
crossing the AT &SF railroad.
SECTION - 2. SCOPE OF WORK
The services provided by this proposal will result in the value analysis
of several structural alternatives to the proposed railroad overpass, then,
depending on the economic benefits, proceed, when directed, with either B)
An independent structural analysis and geometric check of the proposed documents
or C) A new design and geometrics for the newly selected system.
A. Value Analysis Examine all criteria and requirements of the proposed
Project. Determine the initial and life cycle cost savings and identify any
unnecessary costs. The viable alternatives will be identified and ranked
according to feasibility and cost. Alternatives to be reviewed are as follows:
1. Research the 27 -foot vertical clearance requirement of the
railroad. If justified, see if railroad should share costs
for added height for electrification.
2. Assess the possibility of using shallower girders over
restrictive track.
Page 1
3. Assess the use of deeper girders at east end spans,
thereby eliminating one pier.

tracks to shorten structure length.

joint near middle of bridge.
6. Evaluate use of other precast girder systems.
7. Evaluate methods by which project can be phased to match
funding budget.
B. Independent Design Review of Structure, Roadway and Geometry When
directed, the Engineer will perform an independent structure analysis of the
overpass structure and check the geometrics of the prepared documents. Review
the documents for completeness and supply marked up prints which will be

drawings.
C. New Project Design If the economics of the value analysis indicate
