A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
In a report on the Illinois and St. Louis Bridge, in 1868, I advanced the proposition that, for railroad purposes, an upright arched bridge could be more cheaply constructed than was possible by the suspension system. This postulate called forth soon after, some dissenting views from engineering journals to which I had not, at the time, the leisure to reply.
