QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005 I'm back, still having trouble trouble with links, but did manage to find it and look. Oohhhhh, THAT steel arch bridge. It almost acts like a suspension bridge, and for trains, may be too bouncy. I see how that deck could be getting a little low for modern shipping.
QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005 Hey Buckeye, was the Tacoma Narrows bridge excessive deflection, or does that qualify as bouncy?? I always love watching that clip of that thing flapping in the breeze, with that car on it. [swg] Nice photo of a couple of cantilevers there. Railroads DO use that style. By the way, BOUNCY is a technical term used by pedestrians walking across bridges with heavy traffic rushing past. Quite un-nerving really.[:0][:p][:D][;)]
