Two cables -- 14,000 miles of wire
For spinning of two main cables of 1800 ft main span and two 555 ft side spans of Throgs Neck bridge in New York City, total of 14,000 mi of 0.196 in. diam galvanized wire was needed; working platforms, stairways, spinning machines, tensioning towers, reel stands and control stations were set up on anchorages; dual-sheave wheels were used for spinning; cables were adjusted by shims and hydraulic jacks; final positioning was done at night when strands showed uniform temperature.
