Structures & Bridges

Bridges, retaining walls, and foundations engineered to last.

Our structural capabilities span the full range of heavy civil construction — from highway bridges and pedestrian overcrossings to retaining walls, culverts, wildlife crossings, and complex shoring systems. Every project is approached with meticulous planning, strict quality control, and a commitment to building infrastructure that serves communities for decades. We self-perform the majority of our structural work, giving us direct control over safety, schedule, and craftsmanship from start to finish.

Why choose Truxtun for structural work?

1. Proven bridge construction expertise: Our crews have built and rehabilitated bridge structures across California, handling everything from cast-in-place concrete decks and steel girder erection to seismic retrofitting and widening projects. We understand the complexity of working over active roadways, waterways, and rail corridors.

2. Comprehensive retaining wall systems: We design and construct mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls, soldier pile walls, concrete cantilever walls, and soil nail systems. Whether the project calls for grade separation, slope stabilization, or aesthetic screening, we deliver walls engineered to perform.

3. Foundation and substructure capabilities: From driven piles and drilled shafts to spread footings and grade beams, our foundation work supports the most demanding loads. We coordinate closely with geotechnical engineers to match foundation systems to site-specific soil and seismic conditions.

4. Self-performed quality control: Because we self-perform our structural concrete, formwork, and rebar placement, we maintain direct oversight of every critical operation. This means tighter tolerances, fewer rework cycles, and structures built exactly to specification.

5. Safety-first execution: Structural work involves significant risk — working at heights, near traffic, and with heavy loads. Our safety programs, daily briefings, and OSHA-compliant protocols ensure every crew member goes home safe while delivering work that meets the highest standards.

Benefits of choosing Truxtun for structures & bridges.

• Lasting infrastructure: Our structures are built to meet or exceed design life requirements, delivering decades of reliable service to the communities that depend on them.

• Schedule reliability: With in-house crews and equipment, we control our own schedule and can mobilize quickly — reducing project timelines and keeping critical infrastructure on track.

• Single-source accountability: From earthwork and foundations to structural concrete and finishing, we handle multiple scopes under one contract — simplifying coordination and reducing risk for project owners.

• Regulatory compliance: We work within Caltrans, county, and municipal standards daily, ensuring every structure meets the required codes, specifications, and inspection criteria.

• Community impact: Every bridge we build and every wall we construct improves access, safety, and connectivity for the people and communities that use them.
