The primary objective of this study is to evaluate and test the new girder/support assembly design from a vibration standpoint, and to determine what, if any, conditions could lead to unacceptable vibration response. There are also two secondary objectives: Determine whether smaller sliding-wedge-type jacks are needed to anchor the large alignment jacks to the lower pedestal, or if standard bolts are acceptable. Determine whether modifications to the large alignment jacks are required in order to limit unwanted horizontal motion. The modifications involve restraining the horizontal motion of the sliding-wedge jacks by six setscrews.
