Fixed In Space.





This is the first phase of a dry stone arch we rebuilt over a small stream in mid February 2013 in California as part of a new bridge project to be completed next year. It was someone else's design but unfortunately it couldn't be completed with the available stone. This was an extensive "remodel"  as we had to actually 'half' take down the arch, cut and reshape some large voussoir stones and reconstruct most of the span from more reclaimed material.   

More photos of the various stages of this unusual bridge reno project will be posted later this month.
