Footbridges, retaining structures, marine constructions, playground equipment and innovative timber-fabric structures are other applications for structural round timbers.
Figure 9. Cable stayed footbridge in Vallorbe, Switzerland, 1989. The footbridge features two 360mm diameter pressure treated European whitewood poles. The structure of the deck is made of five simply supported panels which are supported via girders made of two mechanically jointed 240mm diameter pressure treated European whitewood round timbers. The deck itself is made of untreated sawn larch timbers.
