NEW PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE FOR OBI OBI
21 Jul 2021
Landmark Products designed, manufactured and installed a K1105 Straight ‘Murray Series’ Pedestrian Bridge with modifications.
Located in Obi Obi, Queensland, the 25m x 2m (total width) structure provides golf cart access to and from an open space for recreational use.
To create a common connection amongst structures within the property, the decking was matched to timber found in and around the local area.
Landmark's in-house design team collaborated with both the client and a local architectural firm to provide a pedestrian bridge suitable to their needs.
The modified K1105 Straight Murray Pedestrian Bridge includes:
- ACQ factory treated, select hardwood timber joists and battens.
- Hot dipped galvanised steel trusses with 2-Pac Epoxy paint.
- Stainless steel swaged baluster wire (horizontal) connections.
- 2 x lineal lengths of 100mm conduit full distance underside of the pedestrian bridge.
- Galvanised fixings and brackets.
Up to four small cranes were utilised for the installation due to the ruggedness of the site’s terrain. The lift was conducted in one day after assembly of the pedestrian bridge was completed on-site.
