Not illustrated. 1875 Excerpt: ...be necessary to withdraw the wedge, or slack the screw at the end of the line in which it was located, and by which the initial compression was created, and every piece in that line would then be released and any one easily removed. The initial compression could be so great that no tension could be produced in either chord by wind pressure, and hence no jointing of the sticks together would be necessary to resist wind. The track stringers and every longitudinal timber in the floor-way could be thus utilized to resist the thrust of the arches, and in this way, where timber is cheap, a very durable and economic structure can be erected. As no thrust in such a bridge can come on anything but the abutments, and as these can generally be located on the high banks of the stream, the cost of the entire substructure would exceed very slightly tha', which would be required in a truss bridge with spans of equal length. It would probably be best to make the arches of such a series, uniform. The thrust at the abutments will be the same whether there be but one or many arches in the system. The stress on the chords (except initial) would be due entirely to the unequal loading of the various arches. This method is applicable to parallel truss bridges, and by it the iron lower chord or tension member may be omitted and wooden compression members substituted therefor. The objection to the combination of wood and iron in bridge construction, owing to the difficulty of repairing the bridge, does not exist in this method. In all others, the wood is either under tension or compression and therefore difficult to be removed. In this, the entire chords of any one arch could be removed without endangering the stability of that arch or of any other one of the series; for it is plai...
