Barefoot Resort Swing Bridge

Project Description

Saffo was hired originally in 2012 to rehabilitate the Barefoot Landing Bridge, a 300-foot-long swing bridge over the Intercoastal Waterway. Saffo was able to save the City of North Myrtle Beach close to $1 million dollars by providing an overcoat system to the structural steel in lieu of a full coating removal of the existing system.  Today, Saffo annually washes the bridge and performs an SSPC SP 2 and 3 to corroded areas and touches up the steel with a moisture cured polyurethane to increase the life expectancy of the structure for the city.
