Comparative tests of models of Tacoma and San Francisco Bay bridges made at Northwestern Technological Institute, Evanston, Ill; dynamic stability of suspension bridges under various loading conditions; manner in which prestressed diagonal hangers, added to conventional cable-vertical hanger-stiffening-truss arrangement, transform flexible cable system into rigid structure defying all efforts to build up vibration amplitude or undulation.
