Reference: Bridge Abutment Assessment for property located at 2297 Tahuya River
Road in Tahuya,Washington
Dear Mr.Neyhart,
Envirotech Engineering (Envirotech) completed a site visit on March 14, 2008, followed by this structural
assessment of two existing reinforced concrete bridge abutments located at 2297 Tahuya River Road in
Tahuya, Washington. The abutments will hold a prefabricated bridge with an approximate span of 82 feet.
The bridge will have a dead load of about 46,000 pounds. The accompanying abutment details depict
construction information for this project.
The owner provided all construction information for the existing abutments. Envirotech verified abutment
dimensions and assessed soil conditions during the site visit. The structural analysis provided herein is
based on owner provided information and the aforementioned field verification by Envirotech. This
assessment is structural,and does not assess hydraulics or river dynamics.

These types of soils settle immediately upon loading,with virtually no consolidation or secondary settlements.
Total settlement is estimated to be less than 1.0 inch,with a differential settlement of less than 0.5 inch.This is
based on foundations constructed per the retaining wall design detail.
