REMINDER
Your Assignment #5: Final Report will construct an argument about how the factors you research report will
affect the organization’s work and what actions it should take. These arguments must be supported with
strong evidence (logos and ethos), including data, tables, and materials from credible resources.
Avoid simply copy-and-pasting your research from the previous submissions. This report is persuasive — you
will enhance your previous research by carefully restructuring and reorganizing the information to create a
persuasive argument from the objective information you found in the research report.

1.0 Introduction:
The Burlington Bay James N. Allan Skyway Bridge, built in 1958 then twined in 1985, is a pair of high-level freeways, spanning the Burlington Bay Canal (Oct. 30, 1958: Burlington bay skyway completed, 2019). The bridge becomes significantly busy every single day, especially during rush hours as it is located in one of the main arteries within the Golden Horseshoe region (Burlington Bay James N. Allan Skyway, 2020). Comment by Tahmeena Mohammad Hashim: Please include the background of bridges and then tied arch bridges specifically
In order to reduce and manage the accidents on the Burlington Skyway Bridge, we suggest implementing a design, which would be similar to the Dubai Floating Bridge. The purpose of the final research report is to assess the feasibility of promoting or deterring the use of bridge types in Ontario. Comment by Tahmeena Mohammad Hashim: This needs updates according to the instructions
2.0 Tied Arch bridges
1.1
Criteria #1: Uses
The main structure of the tied arch bridges consists of an arch and a deck. The deck is the place where the traffic will flow, and the arch will provide support (Manuel García-Guerrero & José Jorquera-Lucerga, 2018). The main criteria of the tied arch bridges are that the forces applied the bridge will be carried to the land where the bridge is buried. Therefore, tied arch bridges are one of the best solutions for high loads since their span is generally smaller compared to other bridge types (Vlad et al., 2015). Comment by Tahmeena Mohammad Hashim: Enhance these paragraphs according to the instructions

2.2 Criteria #2: Material
(Bin, Gong-lian, Wen-hua, Qing-yuan, 2015). Steel is used for the wire suspenders which will run upstream and downstream. Additionally, concrete will be used for the bridge deck (Järvenpää & Quach, 2019).

2.3 Criteria #3: Span
Earlier designs of the tide arch bridges used to consist of shorter spans (Miao, Yu, & Mei, 2016). Today, they can be ranged between 50 m to 552 m. Specifically, a Tied arch bridge that is designed to be built for a Highway, would range between 75 m to 250 m. As mentioned before, a tied-arch bridge can be designed up to 552 m span (or even longer than that sometimes). Usually, smaller spans have only one arch in each side of the bridge, whereas longer spans will require the installation of multiple arches (Järvenpää & Quach, 2019).
