FIGG Bridge Engineers
FIGG Bridge Engineers (commonly referred to as FIGG) is an American engineering firm specializing in the design, construction management, and inspection of bridges. Founded in 1978 by Eugene Figg, the company was founded in 1978 and headquartered in Tallahassee, Florida.
FIGG was established by Eugene C. Figg Jr., a civil engineer renowned for his contributions to bridge design in the United States. The firm gained prominence for its pioneering work in precast segmental concrete bridges, which combine structural efficiency with architectural elegance. Following Eugene Figg's death in 2002, his daughter, Linda Figg, took over as President and CEO.
Over its history, FIGG has designed or contributed to over 230 bridges across the United States and internationally, with a focus on creating structures that are both functional and visually striking. The firm has received numerous awards for its engineering and design work, including recognition from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the National Steel Bridge Alliance. Of course, there is controversy as past bridges or designs have failed with deaths and injuries such as the Jordan Bridge 2012 in Norfolk, Virginia and more recently the Florida International University pedestrian bridge collapse 2018 in Miami, Florida.
FIGG has been involved in the design and engineering of several high-profile bridges, including:
