If you want to learn more: https://provinciadiprato.wordpress.com/2017/03/19/passerella/<br />(You can read there an english presentation of the work by himself)<br />The same engineer, Krall, is the author of the project that won the contract for the construction of the bridge over the "fosso Biedano" (instead of the Nervi's one shown in the blog). here's the picture when the bridge had just been built. https://images.app.goo.gl/mBTuZh3E7JBk9B6g9<br />News about it, people can find in some national magazines from the 1930s, or even in an English magazine: "Concrete and constructional engineering", May 1939 pages. 290-291("Novel falsework for a large arch bridge").Pier Luigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02583760217576693660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6470543006314152962.post-53702037935597823952013-07-08T23:49:03.600+01:002013-07-08T23:49:03.600+01:00The elevation of the bridge shown above is from Hu...The elevation of the bridge shown above is from Huxtable.

I'd like to konw if I can find others designs of this bridge in the book "Pier Luigi Nervi, Ada Huxtable, Mayflower, 1960" (I've already found some designs in "The Works of Pier Luigi Nervi, Pier Luigi Nervi, The Architectural Press, 1957").
