About this file
This document is a comprehensive structural inspection report for the Big Creek Greenway Phase 4 trail segment, spanning from Bethelview Road Trailhead to Kelly Mill Road, prepared by Heath & Lineback engineering firm. The project involves a 2-mile (10,700 ft) trail with 5,500 ft of elevated boardwalk structures, which has been evaluated for structural condition and load-bearing capacity. The inspection assesses 15 distinct boardwalk and bridge segments, rating them across six key categories: structural deterioration, erosion, siltation, slab settlement, mildew/fungi presence, and structural damage.
The detailed analysis reveals significant infrastructure challenges, with approximately 52% of the boardwalks needing immediate repair or replacement, 26% requiring minor repairs, and only 17% in good condition. Load rating calculations demonstrate the current pedestrian live load capacity at 90 psf (pounds per square foot), with variations in structural integrity across different segments. Some boardwalks (5B, 10, 12, and 13) are rated as newly replaced and in excellent condition, while others like Boardwalks 01, 02, and 06 show more extensive deterioration and require substantial intervention. The inspection provides a granular breakdown of each segment's condition, square footage, station locations, and specific maintenance recommendations to ensure trail safety and longevity.
