13 PEDELTA The pedestrian bridge will be designed to add a distinctive visual element with a clear identity and landmark quality to The City of Sunny Isles Beach. Aesthetic enhancement The bridge is designed with the goal of having a pleasant overcrossing transition to Samson Ocean Front Park and the beach. The bridge design consists of one tied stainless-steel arch bridge. The bridge spans over Collins Ave. lining up to culminate into a panoramic platform centered on the sea view. The bridge is supported by a single stainless-steel arch rib inclining at 18° to provide a slender, transparent and elegant impression. The arch positioned on the north side of the deck expressing a modern, understated, and elegant aesthetic. The innovative bridges is based on our company's aesthetic philosophy of "Complex Simplicity". Design and Construction Approach Pedelta's proposal is based on the use of stainless-steel on the entire structure. This use of a forefront technology provides premium aesthetics within a unique setting in addition to a safe and durable asset for the community. The structure has an extended life cycle, is more corrosion -resistant, and requires less maintenance, reducing its overall cost. The design has been focused on both structural efficiency and pleasing proportioning of the geometry, resulting in a span -to -rise ratio of around 6 and a span -to -arch depth ratio of around 100. Bridge uses trapezoidal cross- sections for the girders that make up the deck and triangular cross-sections for the arch ribs. The bridges are designed to add a distinctive visual element with clear vistas to Samson Park and the Ocean by creating a new iconic presence in the city skyline. To accommodate seatings a curved landing east platform gracefully connected to the bridge has been designed to accommodate a resting/relaxing shaded area opened to the ocean view.
