Summary
| Description |
By Ian De Gruchy (2009) This projection formed the metal ‘skeleton’ of the bridge under the concrete, closely resembling a meccano set. The artist was inspired by prominent Brisbane civil engineer Harding Frew, commissioned from 1926 to 1932 by Brisbane City Council as Bridge Engineer for the design of the bridge. Frew designed the bridge with a series of bow-string steel sections built using a Swiss system of concrete-sprayed steel (gunite). Frew was originally criticized for his design because he used innovative practices for spraying the arch concrete over the steel. |
