Jackson Humpback Covered Bridge HAER VA-1 (Page ,2) The Humpback Bridge, located adjacent to Virginia Rte. 60 and crossing Dunlops Creek near Covington, was built in 1835 as a part of the Kanawha Turnpike. [1] It is the oldest covered bridge in Virginia. Originally three bridges of this design were built across Dunlops Creek, all by a man known as Mr. Venable of Lewisburg and his assistant, Tomas Kincaid. [2] All three were part of the Kanawha Turnpike, a roadway 208 miles long designed to connect the market centers of eastern Virginia with the rapidly developing frontier.

    Covered Bridge Manual PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-HRT-04-098 APRIL 2005 Research, Development, and Technology Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center 6300 Georgetown Pike McLean, VA 22101-2296 FOREWORD The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) as amended by the TEA-21 Restoration Act established the National Historic Covered Bridge Preservation Program (NHCBPP). This program includes preservation of covered bridges that are listed, or are eligible for listing, on the National Register of Historic Places. It includes research for better means of restoring and protecting covered bridges. It also includes technology transfer to disseminate information on covered bridges as a means of preserving our cultural heritage. The development of the Covered Bridge Manual is one of the research projects funded through NHCBPP. The broad objectives of the NHCBPP research program are to find means and methods to restore and rehabilitate historic covered bridges to preserve our heritage using advanced technologies, and to assist in rehabilitating and restoring these bridges. The specific objectives of this research project are to provide comprehensive support to those readers involved with maintaining, assessing, strengthening, or rehabilitating any covered bridge. The manual is intended primarily for engineers and historic bridge preservationists to provide technical and historical information on preservation of covered bridges. It will also be of interest to others involved with these bridges—including lay people, owners, and contractors. The manual is separated into several sections with a number of chapters devoted to the specifics of each. The sections include background, description of bridge components, technical engineering issues, existing bridges, and references. The appendices include multiple case studies of existing bridge rehabilitation and construction of new authentic covered bridges.
