Alvis found that because the bridge material is aluminium, they had to rely on clamping force to ensure that there is no slippage under load in the panel jaws, which would compromise the integrity of the whole bridge.
The bridges are highly loaded and operate in extreme, hostile environments. The reliability of each bridges, high strength friction-grip, bolted connections are crucial to the operational integrity of the structure.
