This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for the Weeks Brook Bridge Railing Repair project under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) at Franklin Falls Dam in Franklin, New Hampshire.

The project involves repairing and replacing the bridge railing system on the Weeks Brook Bridge, located at approximately 71°39'44.5"W, 43°30'2.8"N near Sanbornton, New Hampshire. The work includes removal of the existing deteriorated railing connections and installation of a new bridge railing system designed to modern safety standards. According to the design plans provided, the new railing system consists of W6X20 steel posts connected with W-beam sections (12 gauge steel), mounted on the bridge fascia beam using 7/8" bolts, 1" base plates, and timber deck components. The railing design incorporates button-head carriage bolts and includes preformed pads and beveled washers for proper load distribution. Additionally, the project requires replacement of signs at the eastern approach to the bridge. The work is to be performed at the USACE-owned Franklin Falls Dam facility, with access controlled through an existing road closure gate. The detailed design specifications, cross-sectional details, and installation requirements are provided in the included design plans and photographs documenting the current condition of the bridge structure and its approach roads.
