  • Bridge Fence Railing: RFI #1 Material requirements. Does the steel need to match the Pedestrian Truss which is weathering steel? RFI #2 Is the Bridge Fence rail part of the pedestrian truss superstructure since the welds shown on plan sheet 46 call for it to be shop welded? The specs for the truss call for railing & fencing to be included in this pay item. Please advise. Thanks
