ing upon eight caisSons so feet in d1-
ameter, will be of steel Skeletonry en-
closed in masonry. not only for the es-
thetic value of the stone but to pro-
tect the steel against the weather.
The masonry would cost less than the
ever increasing cost of keeping the ex-
posed steel work painted.
Corrosion is the greatest enemy of
steel in this climate; nature is forever
trying to change steel back to its an
cestor, iron. Therefore the protection
from the weather. The painting of
the Firth of Forth bridge requires n
perpetual force of thirty painters year
in and year out. After reaching one
end of the bridge in from three to
four years, the painters return to the
other end for the next coat, to save
the structure from corrosion. IN the
Hudson river bridge that force of men
would have to be ten times larger,
the expense of maintenance would be
enormous; but with the steel protect
ed there would remain only 8 per cent
exposed to the weather.
Cables Twelve Feet in Diameter.
the burden of the great weight will be
twelve feet in diameter. They will be
protected by bronze shells
The doorway will be in two decks,
the upper carrying the promenades,
four surface tracks, and a roadway
two and one-half times the width of
Fifth avenue. The upper deck will
form a fire and waterproof roof over
the lower deck. which will provide
twelve railroad tracks each capable
of carrying the heaviest trains and To-
comotives.
The greatest weight which the tow
ers and cables will have to carry will
be the 100000 tons of the suspended
spans; compared with, this the live
loads will be inconsiderable.
The bridge will ordinarily never be
called upon to carry at one time more
than one-fourth the density and maxi
mum loads for which it was designed; ;
but it was necessary to provide for a
transportation capacity and trackage
about equal to that of all four high
way bridges over the East River COM
bined. If passed thru tunnels that
amount of traffic would require 80
tunnels under the river, in addition to
the present 16 rapid transit and rail-
road tunnels now existing.
The passenger traffic available over
the North River bridge was estimated
in 1900 at 100000 a year; for the
year 1910 the estimate is 200, 900, 900,
not including the 100, 100000 pas
sengers who are using the six existing
tunnels under the North river. In
1910 it is estimated there will be u.s.
100000 vehicles passing over the
bridge yearly.
The grades over the bridge would
be less steep than they would have
to be in any sub-river tunnels at this
point.
The materials will be of higher
grade than those used at present in
