Byggeriet af Den Gamle Lillebæltsbro
The construction of the Old Little Belt Bridge started in 1930, and in 1935, the first fixed link between Jutland and Funen was ready to use. The need was great. In the first year after opening, 533,000 cars crossed the bridge. Today, all trains between Jutland and Funen still cross the Old Little Belt Bridge, while there is also a car lane in each direction and passage for pedestrians and cyclists.
The bridge was an enormous construction project. Most of the work was done by hand. The entire steel structure, which forms the bridge’s upper part, is riveted with over 2 million rivets and putting a rivet in required a three-man team. The rivet heater held the rivet, and the holder provided the backstop necessary for the rivet to be formed by the pneumatic hammer.
See how the construction was done.
