Bridge Rivets/Bolts for Historic Structure
Bridge Rivets/Bolts for Historic Structure
(OP)
I have a historic bridge where rivets that are to be replaced. New bolt heads are required to have the appearance of the existing rivets(on both ends of the bolt). Historic Commission has input. I've been looking for TC bolts that would look like this. Anyone have any experience with this kind of bolt? Does it exist? I called LeJeune - no luck!
I'm thinking the nut would look like the button end of a rivet, except it would have a hole in it for the bolt to thread - these would be TC bolts, so the ends would shear off, perhaps leaving a flat face aligning with button bolt end/hole.
