Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge Scale Model Plans

Here are the scale model plans for the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge Professor of Practice at Tufts University Brian Brenner brought for the 2004 conference. The first list is the files in JPG form, the second list is files in auto cad form, the full version of auto cad is needed to read them. Below these lists are the JPG's to view.

JPG Files
File a, File b, File c, File d, File e, File f, File g, File h, File i, File j, and final product (bmp).

Autocad files
File a, File b, File c, File d, File e, File f, File g, File h, File i, File j, File k, File l, File m, File n, File o, File p and final product (bmp).

If you are planning on building this scale model Professor Brenner has some recommendations.
The first segments by the piers are hard for younger students to place, so this detail should be improved.
Also with the first segments, there should be some type of latch or connection to the piers to force the span into better position.  We've been filling the gap with folder paper.
The cables need some type of turnbuckle to adjust the length.  I started using clips just to see how it would work. 

If you construct this scale model and make any successful modifications feel free to pass them onto the webmaster.
