Planning assignments have included preparing Bridge Development Reports, Bridge Analysis Reports of PD&E Studies, and developing conceptual plans. Construction assignments have included project management of post design services, structural field inspections, shop drawing review, and design support during construction of bridge projects. Other assignments have included retaining wall design (both temporary and permanent), bridge barrier rail replacements, soil anchored sheet pile wall design, box culvert design, drainage structure design, mast arm design, strain pole design, monotube signal design and sign structure design. Mr. Hebert has served as Project Engineer for the design of over 50 bridge sites for the FDOT, Expressway Authorities andvarious public agencies.
REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS
PedestrianBridge over Southside Boulevard, Duval County, Florida–This 200 LFhollow structural steel Pratt truss bridge was designed as a safety improvement near an elementary school on Ivey Lane in Jacksonville. The project was constructed on drilled shafts in order to reduce vibration impacts to adjacent houses and to minimize utility impacts. The project included ADA compliant approach ramps, signalization with strain poles, retaining walls, right of way maps, and landscape plans. The project was designed for FDOT District 2. Mr. Hebert was the overall project manager and lead Structures Project Engineer responsible for the design of the Pratt truss (composed of HSS members), ADA compliant approach ramps, deck slab on the truss, piers, retaining walls, ADA compliant railing, and steel strain poles.
Lakeland In-Town Bypass over CSX Railroad and Florida Tile Property, Polk County, Florida–This project involved a new roadway alignment that crossed several tracks of the CSX Railroad and the Florida Tile manufacturing facility. The bridge consisted of three spans (240-178-156) with a total bridge length of 574 feet. The spans were unbalanced due to the geometry of the railroad and the Florida Tile property. The nature of the tile manufacturing facility required a vibration sensitive design and significant coordination with the property owners. Mr. Hebert served as the lead Structures ProjectEngineer responsible for the design of the continuous steel girders, deck slab, pier substructure, and end bent pile abutment.
DinklylineTrailBridge over South Lake Formosa, City of Orlando,Florida- This project was a design that consisted of precast double tee beams with a concrete overlay and rolled weathering steel beams. The foundations ranged from mini-auger cast piles to driven steel H piles. Mr. Hebertserved as the overall project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record while also designing the precast double tees, the rolled steel beams, railing, and the foundations.

SR 520 over St. John'sRiver, Brevard County, Florida– This project was a design that consisted of a multi-span AASHTO beam bridge founded on pile bents. The site had significant scour, therefore an extensive lateral load analysis was required to insure lateral stability during the required design storm events. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck and beam design while also performing the lateral analysis for the foundation and bent cap designs. Mr. Hebert was also responsible for the cast in place concrete cantilever retaining walls on the project.
Fiske Boulevard over I-95, Brevard County, Florida– This project was a design that consisted of a severely skewed multi-span bridge widening and slight lengthening while also constructing a new parallel bridge. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck, beam, pier, and tied back critical temporary walls on the project. There were also several cantilever and overhead sign structure designs that Mr. Hebert provided.
Hiawassee Road Over Florida Central Railroad, Orange County, Florida– This project was a design of a multi-phased, single span AASHTO beam bridge over a railroad. Significant coordination with the railroad was required to obtain a permit for construction. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck and beam design while also designing the abutment caps and laying out the phased wire-faced walls. Mr. Hebert was also responsible for the design of many special mast arms on this project.
SeminoleCounty Expressway, Project 2, Section 2 – This project was a 3 mile long section of a limited access tolled expressway for the Turnpike Enterprise. This project included prestressed concrete girder bridges over CR 46A and Upsala Road. The project included long MSE retaining walls, and two bridge culverts for the LockhartSmithCanal. Mr. Hebert served as a Structural Project Engineer laying out many long MSE walls along with designing bridge mounted sign structures and many cantilever and overhead sign structures.
US 92 over LakeGertie, Volusia County, Florida– This project was a design of a multi- span AASHTO beam bridge founded on pile bents over a small lake. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck and beam design while also designing the abutment and intermediate pile bent caps. Mr. Hebert was also responsible for the design of several concrete strain pole intersections on this project.
Enterprise Road over I-4, Volusia County, Florida–This project was a design of a severely skewed, long (spans around 150’) two span 78” Florida Bulb Tee bridge. The bridge was within a major I-4 design build project. The bridge was the replacement of an existing bridge and was built in phases. The phase construction, combined with MSE wall construction and large skew required a combination of critical temporary sheet pile, wire faced wall, and bin wall construction. The design build contract afforded the opportunity to communicate directly with the contracted proprietary wall company for the bin wall design concept during the design stage of the project. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck and beam design while also designing the piers and abutment caps. Mr. Hebert was also responsible for the design of the critical temporary walls.
Western Beltway Section 602, Orange County, Florida -This project was a segment of a new roadway that had five AASHTO beam bridge sites, multiple MSE walls, several mast arms, overhead and cantilever sign structures, and bridge mounted signs. Mr. Hebert served as a Structural Project Engineer responsible for laying out the five bridge sites and designing bridge decks, beams, abutment caps, and piers. Mr. Hebert also designed several special mast arms, overhead and cantilever sign structures, and bridge mounted sign structures.

Western Beltway Section 603, Orange County, Florida–This project was a segment of a new roadway that had six AASHTO beam bridge sites, multiple MSE walls, several mast arms, overhead and cantilever sign structures, and bridge mounted signs. Mr. Hebert served as a Structural Project Engineer responsible for laying out the five bridge sites and designing bridge decks, beams, abutment caps, and piers. Mr. Hebert also designed several special mast arms, overhead and cantilever sign structures, and bridge mounted sign structures.
SR 472 over I-4, Volusia County, Florida–This project was a design of a multi- span AASHTO beam bridge founded on cast in place concrete piers and piles. Mr. Hebert served as the bridge project manager and the Structural Engineer of Record for this project. He was also responsible for the deck and beam design while also designing the abutment, piers, and special fence. Mr. Hebert was also responsible for the design of many special mast arms.
Various Bridge Load Ratings – These bridge load ratings encompassed flat slab bridges, AASHTO beam bridges, and structural steel bridges. Every bridge within the projects listed above required load ratings. Mr. Hebert has performed bridge load ratings using LRFR and LFD design methodologies.
