Tintagel Footbridge
In order to provide long-term durability in this marine environment, as well as high strength and a sparkling appearance, important elements of the bridge were fabricated from 20 tons of nickel-containing duplex 2205 stainless steel (UNS S32205). It was used for the diagonals linking the upper and lower chords, cross-beams, bridge deck bracing and the parapet as well as two 50 mm diameter x 430 mm deck alignment pins, machined connection blocks for the cantilever sections, polished bars (30-65 mm diameter) linking the upper and lower chords of the bridge, trays to hold the slate tiles of the bridge deck and polished components of the balustrade.
