Transport Biosis Pty Ltd, Graeme Butler & Associates 2017: Appendix 3 329 Southbank and Fishermans Bend Heritage Review 15.2 Raising monuments Boundary of heritage place Description The Western Link and Bolte Bridge comprise a 4.6 kilometers elevated road with separate parallel three-lane carriageways consisting of post-tensioned precast segmental box girders on cylindrical reinforced concrete piers. The match-cast segmental box girder superstructures are continuous over several spans. Much of the elevated roadway is built on compound curved alignment. A distinctive elliptical three-pin arch sound tube encloses the elevated roadway for 300 metres near the northern end, providing noise protection to adjacent Flemington high-rise housing commission estate. The Bolte Bridge over the Yarra River at the Victoria Dock (now renamed Victoria Harbour) entrance is a post-tensioned balanced cantilever variable-depth box girder structure with larger tapered span sections cantilevered from a central pier, and smaller tapered sections cantilevered from the two side piers, forming two central spans of 173 metres each and two 72-metre side spans. The Bolte Bridge superstructure consists of twin parallel concrete box girders, each carrying three lanes of traffic. The box girders are 12 metres deep at the centre pier with the depth reducing to a slender 3.5 metres at mid-span. Twin hollow 140-metre tall concrete towers flank the central pier as decorative landmark element of the design. The bridge clearance over the river is 25 metres. Interchanges are provided at the West Gate Freeway, Footscray Road, Dynon Road, Racecourse Road and Mt Alexander Road. The elevated roadway crosses Moonee Ponds Creek four times and several other roads, as well as running above the Upfield Railway line for about a kilometre. The elevated roadway section incorporates 100 spans designed as a match cast segmental span construction. A chloride-free super plasticising admixture, Rheobuild 1000, was incorporated into the concrete mix to ensure that the concrete used in the precast segments met the required Biosis Pty Ltd, Graeme Butler & Associates 2017: Appendix 3 330 Southbank and Fishermans Bend Heritage Review design specifications. Each of the elevated roadway's spans measure about 45 metres in length, and consists of 13 precast reinforced concrete segments weighing between 45 and 80 tonnes each. History Planning for a western bypass of the Melbourne CBD was first considered in the 1929 Melbourne Metropolitan Plan, and renewed in the 1954 Melbourne Metropolitan Board of Works (MMBW) plan. However, these both considered using existing roads such as Cowper Street in West Melbourne and Boundary Road in North Melbourne for the required route. Both the Southern and Western CBD bypasses were placed more firmly on the drawing board in the 1969 Melbourne Transport Plan (Metropolitan Transportation Committee, 1969) which recommended an extensive freeway network across Melbourne to address projected rising traffic volumes. Although much of this network was officially abandoned by the Hamer government in the mid-1970s, this did not include the Southern and Western Bypasses. In 1991, the Southern and Western Bypasses emerged again, in the State government’s guidelines on private investment in public infrastructure, as a single-entity potential private sector project. In addition, the federal government's tax concessions for private construction of public infrastructure – part of its Working Nation package – made the project financially feasible in a way that

  • Researching Stonehenge: Theories Past and Present
    Parker Pearson, M 2013 Researching Stonehenge: Theories Past and Present. Archaeology International, No. 16 (2012-2013): 72-83, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/ai.1601 ARTICLE Researching Stonehenge: Theories Past and Present Mike Parker Pearson* Over the years archaeologists connected with the Institute of Archaeology and UCL have made substantial contributions to the study of Stonehenge, the most enigmatic of all the prehistoric stone circles in Britain. Two of the early researchers were Petrie and Childe. More recently, colleagues in UCL’s Anthropology department – Barbara Bender and Chris Tilley – have also studied and written about the monument in its landscape. Mike Parker Pearson, who joined the Institute in 2012, has been leading a 10-year-long research programme on Stonehenge and, in this paper, he outlines the history and cur- rent state of research. Petrie and Childe on Stonehenge William Flinders Petrie (Fig. 1) worked on Stonehenge between 1874 and 1880, publishing the first accurate plan of the famous stones as a young man yet to start his career in Egypt. His numbering system of the monument’s many sarsens and blue- stones is still used to this day, and his slim book, Stonehenge: Plans, Descriptions, and Theories, sets out theories and observations that were innovative and insightful. Denied the opportunity of excavating Stonehenge, Petrie had relatively little to go on in terms of excavated evidence – the previous dig- gings had yielded few prehistoric finds other than antler picks – but he suggested that four theories could be considered indi- vidually or in combination for explaining Stonehenge’s purpose: sepulchral, religious, astronomical and monumental.

    HISTORY OF KEW DEPOT AND ITS ROUTES Page 1 HISTORY of KEW DEPOT and the ROUTES OPERATED by KEW Compiled and written by Hugh Waldron MCILT CA 1500 The word tram and tramway are derived from Scottish words indicating the type of truck and the tracks used in coal mines. 1807 The first Horse tram service in the world commences operation between Swansea and Mumbles in Wales. 12th September 1854 At 12.20 pm first train departs Flinders Street Station for Sandridge (Port Melbourne) First Steam operated railway line in Australia. The line is eventually converted to tram operation during December 1987 between the current Southbank Depot and Port Melbourne. The first rail lines in Australia operated in Newcastle Collieries operated by horses in 1829. Then a five-mile line on the Tasman Peninsula opened in 1836 and powered by convicts pushing the rail vehicle. The next line to open was on 18/5/1854 in South Australia (Goolwa) and operated by horses. 1864 Leonard John Flannagan was born in Richmond. After graduating he became an Architect and was responsible for being the Architect building Malvern Depot 1910, Kew Depot 1915 and Hawthorn Depot 1916. He died 2nd November 1945. September 1873 First cable tramway in the world opens in Clay Street, San Francisco, USA. 1877 Steam tramways commence. Victoria only had two steam tramways both opened 1890 between Sorrento Pier to Sorrento Back Beach closed on 20th March 1921 (This line also operated horse trams when passenger demand was not high.) and Bendigo to Eaglehawk converted to electric trams in 1903.

Choosing stone need not be the same experience. By understanding stone’s basic properties you can make an educated decision when you are selecting stone for your next project. The ‘right stone’ for your project needs to meet requirements based on appearance and performance. Selecting suitable flooring, for example, is firstly a matter of personal taste. One of the appealing aspects of using stone is how its unique character can be used to display your own distinctive personality. The range of colours, textures and finishes available in stone now rivals the range available in more ‘traditional’ floor coverings. Like these coverings, choosing a stone that is durable and resistant to staining and wear is important. The first step is to understand the strengths and challenges of the various types of stone available. Below is a brief beginner’s guide to the seven main stone types commercially available. Stone Type: Sandstone Formation and composition: A sedimentary rock composed predominantly of quartz usually cemented together with clay and/or fused with secondary silica which has been chemically deposited. Minor minerals containing iron and manganese (among others) give the stone its unique characteristics. The movement of these soluble minerals throughout the stone can produce banding or develop as a uniform colour.

Abstract Title: Bronze Southern Doors of the Mitchell Library, Sydney. The building of the major part of the Mitchell Library (1939 - 1942) resulted in four pairs of bronze entrance doors, three on the northern facade and one on the southern facade. The three pairs on the northern facade of the library are obvious to everyone entering the library from Shakespeare Place and are well documented. However very little has been written on the pair on the southern facade apart from brief mentions in two books of the State Library buildings, so few people know of their existence. Sadly the excellent bronze doors on the southern facade of the library cannot readily be opened and are largely hidden from view due to the 1987 construction of the Glass House skylight between the newly built main wing of the State Library of New South Wales and the Mitchell Library. These doors consist of six square panels featuring bas-reliefs of different early printers’ marks and two rectangular panels at the bottom with New South Wales wildflowers.
