Every waterfront bridge on Lake LBJ faces the same challenge: spanning freshwater with consistent levels over granite and limestone substrate while handling moderate wind fetch, constant level reservoir, boat traffic. Shore Protect Team engineers each crossing for the actual conditions at the site near Horseshoe Bay, Marble Falls, Granite Shoals, Kingsland.
Shore Protect Team builds bridges from treated wood, steel, and aluminum — selecting the material that matches the span, loading, and exposure. Pilings are driven to refusal or engineered depth in the lake's granite and limestone. Walkway and boardwalk approaches are integrated to provide seamless access from the bridge to the waterfront.

Pedestrian and light-vehicle bridge construction along Lake LBJ, spanning channels and tributaries in the lake's granite and limestone terrain. Spans are engineered for dead load, live load, wind uplift, and flood forces from moderate wind fetch, constant level reservoir, boat traffic.

Bridge rehabilitation on Lake LBJ: structural assessment, selective demolition, piling evaluation, deck and rail replacement, and load rating restoration. Shore Protect Team restores aging bridges to current structural standards.
Treated wood is the most economical for shorter spans on Lake LBJ. Steel provides the greatest load capacity for longer spans and vehicle traffic. Aluminum offers the longest lifespan with minimal maintenance. Material choice depends on span length, loading, and exposure to moderate wind fetch, constant level reservoir, boat traffic.
Starting at $35/sq ft for new construction and $25/sq ft for repair on Lake LBJ. Final cost depends on span length, width, load rating, material, piling depth in granite and limestone, and any railing or lighting requirements.
Lake LBJ is subject to moderate wind fetch, constant level reservoir, boat traffic. Bridges must be designed with adequate flood clearance above the design water surface elevation. Pilings and abutments must withstand scour forces from flood current in granite and limestone substrate.
If pilings and primary structural members are sound, most decking and railing damage can be repaired. If pilings have settled, corroded through, or been undermined by scour in granite and limestone, full replacement is usually the better investment.
