and the greensboro Bridge, a mid
way point on the big subway system
1t had TO be made strong"
1t was not difficult TO erect the ad-
ditional towers to support the land
ward spans. This was a simple matter.
Two props were added TO the one
weak looking steel support already
in service. This gave three steel props
to the span where before there had
been only one. In addition the en-
gineers braced the whole structure by
crossing heavy iron Orders under the
roadways and tracks. 1t was only
within the last two months and at the
instance of Commissioner Kracke that
the engineers solved the big prob
lem Of the reconstruction programme.
This was the removal of the bridge
anchor pins and the substitution of
stronger ones. This was the one novel
and extraordinary feature Of the whole
work of reconstruction.
The anchor pins of the Williams
burg Bridge tie the members of grid
ers Of the shoreward span TO the land
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1914-05-31

ing the huge nickel-steel pins consumed
a little over three days. The most
extraordinary part OF the feat, which
was unheard Of in engineering circles,
was performed with practically no dis
turbance of the day traffic over the
bridge. The removal of the bridge
anchor pins and the substitution or the
stronger ones was the big problem
which confronted us"
The safety of the bridge following the
removal of the anchor pins and prior
TO the insertion of the larger pins was
secured by the engineers through spe-
cially constructed supporters designed
TO carry all of the strain on the upper
land-span or course OF Orders. The
first huge pin was driven in the tower
on the New York side Of the bridge on
April II. During the operation the
bridge was closed to all except pedes-
TRAN traffic between the hours Of l and
$50 o'clock in the morning.
The bori. z, or cutting. machine was
adjusted in position at 1:44 a. m, and
was connected to the third rail Of the
elevated track from which it got its
motive power. II worked with remark
able success. and its operation COM
pletely justified all of the expectations
Of the department engineers. Only one
hour and three minutes was required to

his own pressure, he is able to hear as
if he were up in the boat.
From the very minute the diver was
submerged. his mate kept up a running
conversation until he appeared again
sixteen minutes later. The telephone
worked so well that the men in both
boats heard all the confab. The tele-
phone wire was wrapped in a 2-inch
cable Of tanned rope that acted as A
stay going down and guide coming
up, fastened as il was to the helmet.
No other connection had he TO depend
on or keep him from going adrift, al
though these divers took down with
them one end Of the cord 10 be fastened
the base Of the mast, so the mine
could be lowered later down this cord
to the spot seventy feet below.
Once below the surface, the leaden
boots and heavy helmet became light.

JNOUE FEAT DOUBLED STRENGTH OF WILLIAMSBURG BRDJE

bore the l3-inch hole. This was the
equivalent OF removing $50 pounds Of
structural steel by boring. An addi-
tional ffty-seven minutes was con-
sumed in finishing and dressing the
new hole for its extension of "A inches
through three added solid steel Orders.
The new pin was then placed in the
hole and driven in by ram, operated
derrick fashion, from an upper steel
beam of the bridge truss. The entire
operation was completed and the bridge
was opened to traffic in less than five
hours.
THE second Of the big pins" said
Mr.. Kracke, ION the Manhattan side
was put in on the morning OF April 20
in still quicker time. The machine was
adjusted by 1870 o'clock, and the act
ual cutting time for making the 13-inch
hole was only fifty-six minutes. The
success OF the operation on the Man
haitian side OF the bridge left no doubt
OF the outcome when the Brooklyn
spans were reached. The fourth and
last pin was put in early Friday morn
ing.
The type OF the bridge has been en-
tirely changed. AS originally planned,
the bridge, In the vernacular OF the en-
gineer, was a suspension bridge with
cantilever shore spans. These have
been converted now into trestle spans
Mayor Mitchell is keenly interested
In the strengthening OF the Williams
burg Bridge, because il is an integral
factor OF prime importance in the
plans for the dual subway system. He
has already held several conferences
with me and my consulting engineers
on this vital matter.
THE bridge is now 100 per cent
stronger than 1t was when the recon-
struction work was begun In the sum
mer of 1911. From having a support
ing strength Of 5000 pounds a linear
foot on the shore spans and 1900
pounds on the main spans, the anchor
age spans will have a supporting
strength Of 5000 pounds, and the
main span viii have a supporting
strength Of 10000 pounds. This means
that II the two subway ears and four
surface cars should pass a given point
at the same time with their live load
Of 10000 pounds the bridge AZ that
point would have a supporting trength
far in excess ~ the peak .ol. .p.sil p
