Project Overview
Prefab Timber Pedestrian Bridge
Areté Structures recently acquired a 90-foot iconic timber bridge designed by internationally known British bridge designer Richard La Trobe-Bateman. Bateman is known for designing structures using the least number of pieces as possible. He uses angles and thinks three dimensionally, to create bridges and other structures using timber, steel and wire rope. This bridge consists of over 2,700 board feet of Douglas Fir Larch from British Columbia and each steel connector was uniquely fabricated. This bridge was featured at the 2017 Timber Framers Guild Conference in Madison Wisconsin, where the bridge was temporarily assembled
