The main structure of the Québec Bridge
This photograph shows the armature of a Québec Bridge under construction. We see many workers. Construction was completed in 1917. At 549 metres, its cantilevered, cable-free central span was the longest in the world. It is considered a masterpiece of modern engineering, as evidenced by its designation on the list of International Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks.
