- A pontoon bridge (see figure) is constructed of two longitudinal wood beams, known as bulks, that span between adjacent pontoons and support the transverse floor beams, which arc called chesses. For purposes of design, assume that a uniform floor load of 7.5 kPa acts over the chesses. (This load includes an allowance for the weights of the chesses and balks.)
