The rapid decay experienced by iron
bridges which are neglected has recently
been exemplihed in Callowhlll street
bridge In Philadelphia. When lately
the painters were set to work on this
structure, their preliminary exertions
IN cleaning off the rust brought of
fakes of oxide from one-quarter of an
inch to three-eIghths Of an inch in
thickness. This at once revealed the
extent to which the injury had already
gone, and called attention to the neces.
slty OF an immediate survey. The fact
that the weakening process had already
proceeded to a dangerous extent was
shown by the vibration, which was so
violent that the men had to hold on
when a heavy load passed over, to
avoid being shaken from the swinging
stages. On examination it was found
that not only had rust invaded the
material Of the girders, but that the
whole bridge, which is built on a rising
grade, had moved down hill so far as to
tear out the top courses of the upper
abutment, and to buckle the struts of
the intermediate supports, while the
movements of the roadway had cracked
the asphalt and forced out the paving
blocks between the tram rails. The
bridge crosses a railway, and provides
for the street traffic above 1t. II III
cludes one span of $40 feet The
structure was only completed in 1910,
and thus ten years of neglect have suf-
lced to bring it to the verge Of destruc-
ton.
