Hello, I am an architectural modelmaker and building a model of the golden gate bridge. Years ago I picked up this book in the Golden Gate gift shop, it was a hard bound book called the Golden Gate Bridge, 50th Anniversity edition, 1987 it was a technical manuel on how they designed the bridge along with some of the original drawings scaled down.These drawings that were included in the back of the book, were general type of information, i.e. overall dimensions, lenght..that sort of thing. I've used these drawings to the extend I can and need more detailed information. For example, the vertical flutes that appear on the horizontal members between the columns are spaced differently from each other. I would like to find exactly the location of these for every horizontal memeber. Would you know where I might be able to get more detailed drawings or whom I can contact? Would they allow me to get these drawings or are they classified ? and who can I contact? Thanks Panos |

Contact the California DOT (Caltrans) and ask them to send you the blueprints of the bridge http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist4/calbrdgs.htm |

Not really , they may charge you a copy and administrative fee for the work involved , but the drawings and blueprints of the bridge (and pretty much any structure with the exception of defense related ones) are public record |

I wonder who the movie studio's contact when they need drawings. That movie, ten five, had a model of the bridge that they wrecked. Someone was telling me it was twenty feet tall. |
