When an engineer builds bridge, he plans for
the heaviest load that will ever be on it; the deep
est snow the greatest wind pressure, the heaviest
trucks with the heaviest loads. Then he decides
how strong the bridge must be. But he does not
build the bridge just barely strong enough to take
care of these heaviest loads He multipleS them by

and no matter if some important part has hidden
flaw, his bridge will not fall.

and machinery, know that human affairs uncer-
