Dear Ken,
Steadfast Bridge Company has designed, fabricated, and delivered thousands of bridges over
the last two decades. From single lane AASHTO highway bridges and pedestrian overpasses to
industrial conveyor supports and long span cable stayed bridges Steadfast welcomes a challenge.
With over 30 years bridge design experience, our team of registered engineers (licensed in 48
states) can meet almost any bridge need. Steadfast Bridges provide the benefit of a custom pre -
engineered, pre - fabricated bridge without requiring you to settle for a stock design.
Steadfast Bridges can be fabricated from virtually "maintenance free" weathering steel or painted
to almost any color you choose. The bridge floor can be wood, concrete, asphalt, or grating. All
Steadfast Bridges carry a 15 year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
After reviewing the enclosed brochure, if you have any questions or need budget pricing please
call us at 800 - 749 -7515. Thank you for considering Steadfast Bridge Company for your bridge
needs.
Sincerely,
Brian W. Miller
