Bridge Overhang Bracket Data Sheet
Bridge Overhang Bracket
Adjustable overhang deck support for both structural steel and precast concrete beams
The size and shape of a Bridge Overhang Bracket is adjusted by changing the vertical and diagonal legs to meet the specific overhang requirements. Brackets can be preset on the ground, then moved into position, to speed forming operations.
With holes spaced at 2” increments, the legs can be adjusted so the diagonal will transfer the load from the end of the bracket to the bottom flange of the beam. An adjusting nut at the outboard end of the bracket is used for final grading.
A coil bolt attached to the exterior hanger passes through a Bolt Holder located along the bottom of
the horizontal channel. The Bolt Holder is relocated
for each project so the coil bolt is at a 45° angle to
the top flange of the beam and bearing against the bottom side of the channel to support the bracket load.
An Extension channel for wider overhangs, Guard Rail Pocket for 2×4 lumber uprights, and Wall Plate for wall mounting, are options adding to the versatility of the Bridge Overhang Bracket.
