About Elevated Walkways & Skybridges
Elevated walkways and skybridges connect buildings, provide safe pedestrian circulation above grade, and create iconic architectural statements for corporate campuses and mixed-use developments. These structures demand structural engineering precision and construction expertise to deliver safe, durable spans.
As your general contractor for elevated concrete structures, we execute complete skybridge packages from foundations and support columns through deck construction and architectural finishes. Our experience includes both cast-in-place and precast hybrid systems, selected based on span requirements, site access, and schedule demands.
Texas weather extremes require careful attention to thermal movement, waterproofing, and expansion joints. We engineer these details into walkway construction, ensuring long-term performance without maintenance headaches. Integration with building facades, glazing systems, and MEP services requires tight coordination that we manage as part of our turnkey approach.
The DFW area has seen significant skybridge construction connecting corporate office towers, healthcare facilities, and mixed-use developments. Each project presents unique challenges related to span length, elevation coordination, and construction sequencing—challenges our crews navigate with proven construction methods.

Frequently asked questions
Elevated Walkways & Skybridges in Irving, TX
Common questions from developers and property owners planning elevated walkways & skybridges projects across North Texas.
What span lengths are feasible for concrete skybridges?
Concrete skybridges typically span 60-150 feet economically, though longer spans are possible with post-tensioning or hybrid steel-concrete systems. We work with structural engineers to optimize span solutions based on your specific project.
How do you manage construction over active roadways or facilities?
We employ shoring towers, temporary supports, and crane-intensive construction methods to build skybridges over active areas. Our safety planning and traffic control coordination ensure minimal disruption to operations below.
What about thermal expansion in Texas heat?
North Texas temperature swings require properly designed expansion joints and bearing systems. We incorporate these details into skybridge construction and coordinate waterproofing to prevent leaks at moving joints.
Can skybridges be enclosed and conditioned?
Yes, most corporate skybridges are enclosed with glass curtain walls and HVAC systems. We coordinate structural embeds, penetrations, and connections to support these systems as part of our structural package.
