Free-Span Bridges and Suspension Bridge Construction

Free-Span Bridges

Today, there is no reason to forego the beauty of wood free-span bridges to allow for unimpeded water flow, or to create a signature design statement in a highly visible location.

In gardens and golf courses, in parks and nature preserves, a wooden bridge using glulam beams can last a lifetime while enhancing the natural setting. Glulam beams are kiln dried and pressure treated, making them long lasting, versatile, economical, and strong.

Nature Bridges also can provide steel-framed, fiberglass and aluminum free-span bridges. We specialize in free span and suspension bridge construction and install one of the nation's top prefabricated steel, fiberglass bridge frames at your site. We can then add architectural features by constructing wood decking and guard rails from one of our many designs.

Steel frames and glulam beams have been used in free-span bridges of up to 200 feet. Nature Bridges combines the best-quality materials and hardware for your suspension bridge construction. The end result is picture perfect.
