Extending from the California-Oregon border to the Central Valley area of the state, the San Francisco Section includes the coastal and adjacent counties from Del Norte County in the north to Monterey County in the south, and abuts the Los Angeles Section at the San Luis Obispo, Kern, Inyo, and Mono county lines. The Section is home to four National Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks; the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, the Alvord Lake Bridge, and the Crystal Springs Dam.

In 1977, in commemoration of the 125th anniversary of ASCE, the San Francisco History & Heritage Committee published a booklet entitled,    Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks of San Francisco and Northern California“. That booklet, as well as all landmarks in  San Franciso Section, can be accessed from the links below.
