Test structure at Northwestern University, Ill, is half-scale model of 200 ft, eight-panel, Warren-type, double-tracked railway bridge; truss members are medium-grade manganese steel, with all connections bolted; any component of bridge can be removed and replaced by carbon steel member to be tested; loads for destructive loading tests are applied to bridge by unique system of fourteen 150-ton hydraulic jacks.
