The Tay Bridge Disaster.
London Builder.

That the bridge went with the train is
now indubitable. That the first fracture
took place at the fifth pier, almost at
the moment that the engine went upon
it, is as much shown by the mode in
which the pillars on that pier are de-
scribed as having fallen to east and
west. On the sixth pier the iron work
was cut of as if with knife. The cause
was taken to be that, breaking at the
fifth pier, and weighted with part at
least of the train, the girder had an i'm
petus Of movement which at once swept
away the connection at the west front.
Cleanliness OF fracture betokens great su-
periority of breaking to resisting force.
There can be no doubt that the force
was greater at the moment of its action
on the clean. cut piece than at that of its
action on the more splintered and rag
ged-that Is, surprising the strength OF
the piers to be the same. We come
thus very close to what a witness must
have seen had there been one on the
spot. The practical lesson, then, is so
far already clear that scientific inquiry
must assume this form. For how great
a pressure on the upper part of the
bridge, when transferred by the lever
age Of the piers to the top of the inn
post. was provision made? Had an iron
plate been built in at the bottom of the
concrete of the piers, and bolts of ade-
quate strength made fast to this bed
carried up to the superstructure, tie
girders could not have been blown
over. From the tenacity possessed by
this part of the structure it may be pos
sible to calculate the force of the dis
turbing power.
