Modular bridge
A modular bridge is formed from a plurality of segmental bridge modules 4 of one piece construction, the bridge 2 having a longitudinal spanning direction and including: 5 a first longitudinal compression member 11,13, 70 at an upper part of the bridge, a second longitudinal compression member 9, 72 at a lower part of the bridge, a structural lateral element 9 for forming or supporting deck elements of the bridge, a shear element 14, 16 for carrying a shear load, and a tension member 6 applying a compressive force to one of the longitudinal compression members 11,13, 70; 9, 72 so that the other of the longitudinal compression members 11,13, 70; 9, 72 forms a main compression element for the bridge 2 and the tension member 6 forms a main tension element for the bridge 2. A connector for joining composite articles comprises a core received within recesses at concave sides of a pair of formations in the articles, and a mechanism for compressing the formations against the core.
