| 説明 | Clifton Suspension Bridge. Panorama constructed from 5 vertical images stitched together in Arcsoft Panorama Maker 5.Taken on Sunday 13/07/2014 at 16:03:05Hrs. Using a Nikon D300s camera with a Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC MACRO OS Lens,52mm UV filterThe original design for a bridge to span the Avon Gorge in Bristol was to be decided by a competition which, in 1829, was judged by Thomas Telford. Telford rejected all the designs and put his own forward which obviously proved very unpopular. A second competition was held in 1830. and 24 year old Isambard Kingdom Brunel was eventually declared the winner and appointed project engineer –This was his first major commission. Work began in 1831 but the project was dogged with political and financial difficulties and by 1843, with only the towers completed, the project was abandoned.. Brunel died in 1859, and the bridge was still not completed. Colleagues in the Institution of Civil Engineers felt that completion of the Bridge would be a fitting memorial to Brunel, and started to raise new funds to complete it. The Bridge was finally completed as his memorial and finally opened in 1864. |
