The single widest bridge deck pour in Missouri state history recently took place on the north bank of the Missouri River, as part of the new Christopher S. Bond Bridge. This concrete pour was 134-feet wide, and placed in 70-foot sections for a total of 1,750 cubic yards. Concrete was pumped in from trucks on the river bank, below the bridge and roadway deck. Approximately 40 crew members worked to grade and finish the concrete before the cure process began. Once the concrete on the deck was placed, it was covered with wet, burlap sheets until the cure process was complete.
