西康沃尔廊,康涅狄格州

廊桥的顶棚和壁板,可以保护里面的木质结构,使其免受风雨的侵蚀,从而大大提高它的耐用性,图中的西康沃尔廊桥就是一个很好的例子。美国的许多廊桥建于19世纪,但很少有廊桥能幸存至今,那些幸存下来的往往是因为其历史和视觉价值,才得以保留。

康涅狄格州康沃尔的西康沃尔廊桥横跨胡萨托尼克河,是一座历史悠久的木结构桁架桥。该桥建于1864年,使用了一座早期桥梁的中墩,是康涅狄格州仅存的三座有顶桥梁之一。其独特的设计结合了“汤恩格构桁架”和双柱桁架,使其在廊桥中显得与众不同。大约在50年前,人们对西康沃尔廊桥进行了改造。1975年,它被认定为国家历史建筑,至今仍支持正常的交通通行。这座廊桥曾出现在电影和明信片中,展现了新英格兰村庄的经典形象。

West Cornwall Covered Bridge, Connecticut

Covered bridges like West Cornwall Covered Bridge, pictured in today's image, were designed with roofs and siding to protect their wooden structures from weathering, greatly increasing their durability. While many were built in the 19th century, few have survived to the present day, and the ones that have are often preserved for their historical and visual significance.

The West Cornwall bridge in Cornwall, Connecticut, is a historic wooden lattice truss bridge that spans the Housatonic River. Constructed in 1864 using the central pier from an earlier bridge, it's one of only three remaining roofed bridges in Connecticut. Modified about 50 years ago, it was recognized as a national historic building in 1975 and still supports traffic today. The bridge has appeared in films and postcards, embodying the classic image of a New England village.
