The... stevedoring crane... is generally of nonswing-boom construction... The load is usually carried on the traction wheels and the steering is at the rear, so that the transportation of a load does not adversely affect the traction or the steering of the vehicle. The large driving wheels in front are suited to carry the concentration of tractor and working load, thus providing a maximum of tractive effort for traveling, light or loaded. This type of crane is generally of 5-ton capacity and has a boom, hinged on top of the frame, providing the maximum of reach with a minimum of required headroom. The boom is generally of balanced cantilever girder design, power-operated, and can be raised and lowered by power from the driver's seat. It can also be adjusted-without a load on the hook-to any of a number of positions of reach and height of hook, depending on the character of the load and the overhead conditions in the operating area. 1, record 2, English, - stevedoring%20crane

... five Italians submitted a design for a pair of reinforced and pre-stressed slim concrete arches, each of 130 foot spans, hinged at the spring lines. They were set delicately between the original 19th-century abutments at the river bank and central pier, as the programme required these remnants to be integrated in the new bridge design. The double arch supported a hollow girder deck with a central span of 180 feet. 1, record 3, English, - hollow%20girder%20deck
