For almost 30 years, FIGG has designed world-class bridges for
our customers that advanced the science of engineering and the art
of design. Focusing on unique solutions, we created distinctive
landmarks that express the spirit of the communities and
environments they serve, while saving money for our customers and
setting enduring records for engineering achievement.
Our commitment for the future of bridges is to expand our
pioneering role in creating elegant works of art that blend
engineering expertise and aesthetic sensitivity. Extraordinary
advances in bridge engineering have resulted in melding technology
and imagination for our customers.
FIGG is solely dedicated to bridges. Our total bridge services
provide owners with the ultimate benefit of world class bridges -
built on time and within budget. FIGG provides customers with
comprehensive bridge engineering services, having experience of $8
billion in construction costs in 38 states and four foreign
countries and bridges currently underway in 18 states. The FIGG
Team has designed or studied 30 cable-stayed bridges. Eight
cable-stayed bridges have been built.
The FIGG Team's passion for creating bridges as art has provided
our customers with over 260 design awards, including three of the
five Presidential Awards for aesthetic achievement awarded for
bridges
through the National Endowment for the Arts. The Presidential Award
winners are the T-275 Bob Graham Sunshine Skyway in Florida , the
Blue Ridge Parkway Viaduct in North Carolina and the Natchez Trace
Parkway Arches in Tennessee.
We pioneered a bridge design charette process for owners to obtain
public consensus and involve communities in the bridge design.
Community input to the bridge aesthetics, balanced with innovative
engineering, can achieve world class structures within budget. We
provide innovative financing support and feasibility guidance to
enable owners to obtain needed transportation facilities with
non-traditional funding.
The FIGG Team of bridge specialists is focused and passionate about
achieving our customers' missions. The FIGG Team's technical
engineering expertise, creativity and attention to aesthetic detail
is what makes a FIGG-designed bridge a work of art.
