Brass model was constructed so that its main parts could be assembed and tested in any combination; in this manner general method for computing wind loads could be devised; effect of floor system on horizontal load is generally small; lift and resulting overturning moment are small on railroad bridges but may be of considerable importance on wide highway spans; tests were conducted in Wright Brothers Wind Tunnel at MIT.
