Resumo: | The Namoi River Road Bridge is a colonial era high level wrought iron lattice truss bridge crossing the Namoi River (Manilla) built in 1886 to replace a dangerous river crossing. The bridge was part of the main road between Sydney (New South Wales – NSW), and Brisbane (Queensland), with the opening of the bridge allowing wool trade from the northern extents of the colony of NSW to be exported via the Port of Sydney. The six approach spans crossing the southern flood plain have history of differential settlement due to ground conditions which has resulted in damage to five bridge piers and variations to the vertical alignment of the bridge. This paper describes the method employed to restore the vertical alignment of the bridge and replace the damaged piers whilst ensuring retention of the structure’s cultural heritage significance, enabling the bridge to continue to operate as part of the NSW State Road network. |

A ponte fazia parte da estrada principal entre Sidney, (NSW) e Brisbane (Queensland) e a sua abertura permitiu que o comércio de lã da zona norte da colónia de NGS fosse exportado através do porto de Sidney. Os seis vãos de aproximação que atravessam a planície de inundação a sul têm um assentamento diferencial devido às condições do solo, resultando em danos em cinco pilares e em variações no alinhamento vertical da ponte. Este artigo descreve o método utilizado para restaurar o alinhamento vertical da ponte e substituir os pilares danificados, assegurando simultaneamente a preservação da importância cultural da estrutura, e o funcionamento da ponte como parte da rede rodoviária estatal de NSW.ARP - Associação Profissional de Conservadores-Restauradores de Portugal2023-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.14568/cp29448eng2182-99421646-043XEverett, ClaireRosnell, AlexanderRankin, Malcolminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-10-03T02:30:48Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/29448Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:32:01.344609Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
