Goff Bridge

Posted May 14, 2009, by Dinesh Patel (bhavel21 [at] yahoo [dot] com)

Dear Sir

I am a Bridge Consulting Engineer in Australia and am presently writing a book on "Lock Up Devices in Structural Engineering". I am interested in knowing how two lock up (LUD)Devices fitted on each abutment of the Goff Bridge are performing. Please contact by email or phone 61 3 62240105.

Many Thanks.
