GREENSBORO BRIDGE
Continued from first page.

way tracks with heavier floor beams and heay-
Ter trusses to carry them. II the bridge had
been erected according to contract. 1t would
have been just about twice strong as the
structure authorized to be erected nine years
ago.
Engineering blunders have resulted in the
superstructure or river spans. being over
loaded that it carry only the traffic
load designed for the lighter bridge first planned
after 100000 pounds of useless steel and con-
crete have been removed. Even then the super
structure is carrying millions of pounds of use
less metal which cannot be removed without re-
construction.
When the weight OF material put into the
superstructure was increased with the intention
OF making the bridge twice as strong as it was
originally planned. the steel shore spans In
Manhattan and Queens were also increased in
size and weight in like proportion. The only
effect the increase In weight of material used
has had upon the river spans has been TO de-
crease their carrying capacity because OF the
plumbers that made in the erection.
The erection of the shore spans did not in
volve the engineering difficulties encountered in
the construction of the river spans. and they are
probably quite safe. though that fact has never
been ascertained 1t may be assumed that they
are just about twice heavy and twice as
strong as is necessary to enable them to carry
any traffic load that ever be run over them.
because no loads are ever likely to occur on the
shore spans that cannot go over the river spans
with safety.
In counting the cost il must be remembered
that the blunder made in the erection or the
river spans has compelled the taxpayers to nav,
for a forest OF steel put into this mile or So OF
shore spans every pound OF which is absolutely,
wasted. This is the principal reason why the
blunder made in the erection OF a superstructura
contracted for at S3132.9S1 has resulted In IN,
wasting Of more than SloOo0OOO OF public
money.
