Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book assesses the practicability of the Hudson River Bridge's suspension design, which would incorporate new engineering concepts and techniques. The author, a civil engineer, draws on a wealth of knowledge and expertise to craft a detailed analysis, examining various aspects of the design including strength of materials, weight of cables, wind pressure, and oscillations. By evaluating these factors, the author concludes that both a 2,000-foot pier bridge and a 3,100-foot suspension bridge without a center pier are safe and practical options. This book's findings are significant as they demonstrate the potential feasibility of long-span suspension bridges, which could greatly impact the construction of future bridges and the accessibility of major waterways.
