The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).

  • Timber Truss Road Bridges Report July 2011
    Allan truss bridges Period of construction: 1894 to 1929 Similar to American Howe Truss design Number built in NSW: 105 Number remaining: Twenty of which 10 listed on State Heritage Register. An additional eight are controlled by local government. Advantages of design In 1893 Percy Allan introduced his new design based on the American Howe truss. It was not, however, a composite truss as foreshadowed by McDonald because only the verticals were iron rods while the bottom chord, despite being a tension member, was still all timber. The new truss featured a much simpler arrangement of triangulations and incorporated many improvements and innovations, derived from his design and practical experience, which made this truss a more cost-effective structure than its predecessors. Defining features of design • All timber members were assembled from relatively smaller and shorter sizes, spliced at regular intervals for the top and bottom chords, laid parallel in pairs but held apart by spacer timber blocks. This allowed rainwater to fall through, gave easy access for painting and increased the buckling strengths of the compression members. • External iron clamps at the joints meant that the vertical rods could be placed within the space between the top and bottom chord timbers or outside these members. One, two or three vertical rods could be accommodated depending on the magnitude of the shear force at the member. • Cast-iron shoes at all joints ensured proper truss action and a good transfer of member forces at the joints. • Any member could be renewed without temporary staging from below and without taking the bridge out of service.

Frank : Let’s start with a little a bit of background about each of you and I’ll ask you a question first, Brian - tell me a bit about your background, where and when you were born and your career as it developed. 0:41 Brian: I was born in Epping in January 1927, so in about two months time I’ll turn eighty-six in age. I was educated at Sydney University and I finished my studies in 1947 and then joined the Department of Main Roads, known as the DMR, at the end of 1947. From 1949 to 1953 I was stationed at Port Macquarie, firstly as the Assistant Engineer and then as the Officer-in-Charge of the area and my main work up there was the reconstruction of sections of the Pacific Highway and the maintenance of the Pacific and Oxley Highways. I did a little bit of work for the local council on behalf of the DMR because I was the only engineer in the town of Port Macquarie: at that time it was a sleepy little village, now it is almost a city.
