Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance
• Program officially started September 1, 2007
• Objective – make steel the material of choice for short span steel bridges.
• Short span steel bridges have spans of 20’ to 140’
• First industry-wide effort to provide education and design support for short span steel bridges.

Summary
SSSBA has produced Resources so that Steel Bridges can Efficiently be Considered
We Hope Missouri Accepts an Invitation to Host a Short Span Workshop or a Steel Bridge Forum
We Desire the Chance to Discuss Pooled Fund Research on the Modular Steel Bridge Research
