LATEST BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION.

1t was explained few days after
the uncompleted span Of the bridge
across the st. Lawrence ut Quebec fell
recently that the accident occurred be.
cause the span was too heavily loaded
with structural material 1t Its outer
end. The span had been built over the
river one hundred and eighty feet from
the pier with no support. Even though
the average person may have a general
knowledge of the principles on which
such span Is constructed. he always
wonders that 1t does not fail Of It's own
weight. Engineers were afraid that 1t
would fall uatll n bridge was built
across tine gorge of the Niagara river
in 1883, the first cantlever bridge In
the world. Now, cantilever Is n
bracket projecting from the side of n
building or pier, In bridge two
such brackets are built from adjoining
piers Til they come near enough to-
eether to be connected by an indepen-
dent truss. In its simplest form the
cantllever, or bracket, for Il bridge is
u stiItS ol 'oHiectcu tIliilsIts, ne
side of the pier Is one side Of the
first triangle; beam projecting from
It at right angles Is the second side,
and a brace running back TO the pier
from the outer end Of the beam Is the
third side. This third side forms the
first side OF the second triangle. and
the end of the first beam Is at its up.
per apex, and the base of the triangle
Is another beam extending from the
lowest point OF the first triangle ut
right angles with the pier and sup
ported AT its outer end by another beam
running from the end of the first beam.
As II Is impossible 10 change the shape
OF triangle so long as its sides and
corners remain rigid, II Is theoretically
possible TO extend a series OF connected
triangles an indefinite distance into
space. All that Is needed Is that the
supporting pier should he strong enough
and that the sides of the triangles
should not buckle. The chief advantage
OF this method Of bridge constructs ion
lies in the possibility Of spanning deep
gOrges and rapid rivers without false
work TO support the uncOmpleted struc-
ture.
