Beaver Bridge, Railway bridge in Monaca and Bridgewater, Pennsylvania, US.
The steel cantilever bridge spans 1,779 feet across the Ohio River, featuring a main span of 769 feet with a Baltimore through truss design.
McClintic-Marshall Company of Pittsburgh completed the construction in May 1910, incorporating engineering lessons learned from the Quebec Bridge collapse.
The bridge represents early 20th-century industrial progress, connecting communities while supporting the regional railway network that shaped local development.
The structure maintains a 29-foot roadway width for rail traffic, serving as a vital transportation link between Monaca and Bridgewater communities.
The bridge combines Pennsylvania truss approaches with a cantilever design, making it an early example of this engineering configuration in the region.
