Fig. 131.—Girder and Post of Elevated Foot-bridge Bolted to Sleeper

If the bridge happens to be in a locality that is subject to periodical flooding, it should be anchored to prevent its being unseated by flood water. The anchoring can be best effected by driving four short piles into the soil on the inside of both girders and near their ends. The girders can be fastened to the piles with coach bolts. The tops of the piles will be concealed by the end floor battens. The smaller twigs forming the ornamentation are now fixed, and Fig. 129 shows the vertical piece hollowed to fit the rails.
