The eye-bar cable suspension bridge at florianopolis, Brazil
Bridge, with main span of 1113 ft. 9 in., is longest span bridge in South America and longest eye-bar suspension span in world; distinctive feature of construction is utilization of cable to replace part of top chord of stiffening truss, and consequent change from conventional parallel chord truss to stiffening truss of more effective outline; another departure from customary practice is use of rocker towers; instead of wire for cables, eye-bars are used made of newly developed, high-tension, heat-treated carbon steel, having yield point exceeding 75,000 lb. per sq. in., and intended to be used with working stress of 50,000 lb. per sq. in. See also discussion in nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9, Aug., Sept., Oct. and Nov., 1927, pp. 1307-1315, 1739-1743, 2031-2046 and 2327-2730. See also Contractors' and Engrs.' Monthly, vol. 14, no. 1, Jan. 1927, pp. 63-72, 17 figs.
