About
Two 1.5 m pier walls with capping plates leave a central chase and carry trunnion bearings at 1.5 m. The deck is a 4 m by 4.2 m steel span on a torsion box with post and rail parapets and amber end bands; the counterweight box swings into the chase behind the pivot. Overall size 4.66 x 2.48 x 6.5 m in metres, +Y up, +Z forward, resting on y=0. Nodes leaf and counterweight share the trunnion axis at y=1.5, z=-0.3, parallel to X. Clips: open raises the leaf to 71 degrees over 2.6 s while the counterweight drops into the chase, close lowers it. Node TRS animation on named nodes only; no skinned rig, skeleton, collision or navigation data.
