What is the difference between a cantilever bridge and a beam bridge?
A Cantilever bridge is built from iron, structural steel and prestressed and reinforced concrete. These materials make the trusses, box girders, vertical columns and the canitlever itself.
How do you make the strongest popsicle bridge?
super glue the joints on the main beam on the top
Why is a natural stone beam bridge strong?
Yes, but the bridge depends on its age. The older it is, the weaker the bridge is. The younger it is, the STRONGER the bridge is.
What is the main difference between an arch bridge and a suspension bridge?
Arch bridges are in the shape of an upside down "U" with mainly steel beans, while supension bridges have one or two Major verticle beams with strong wire connecting to the bridge.
Does food make you taller?
no food does not make you taller
How strong is theTruss bridge?
As strong as you make it... Basically a truss system is used when a beam cannot hold its load, so is one way of 'reinforcing' a beam (you could have more supporting colums or use cable stayed/suspension techniques). Its basically stronger than a beam, and 'weaker' than a suspension bridge, but to be honest it's basically as strong as you engineer it. Try searching truss bridge on wikipedia... there's lots of different types and I'm sure it'l have the info.
How do you make beam balance model?
you can make a beam balance by putting a coloum in the centre of the beam
If you skateboard does it make you taller?
Skateboarding will not make you taller. It might make you skinnier or help you lose weight, but if you are not still growing, you won't get any taller.
Is an arch bridge stronger than a suspension bridge?
Yes. An arch bridge is one of the more efficient ways of building and maintaining a bridge. Beam bridges are not as efficient. For a given span and height, an arch bridge will carry a greater load using less material. The beam structures of a beam bridge can be constructed of wood, reinforced concrete or steel (in increasing order of strength). The beams, however, must be supported by piers or an abutment at each end, which can be made out of concrete, masonry, stone, or steel (or combination thereof). The arch structure of an arch bridge can be constructed of wood, reinforced concrete, steel, or masonry, and the arch can be supported by abutments as described above, or the arch can extended down to the foundation itself. The primary advantage of an arch is that stresses caused by the load on the bridge are converted primarily into compressive stresses that are carried along the arch into the ground. Materials like stone, masonry and concrete are particularly good at carrying these compressive stresses. In contrast, loads on a typical beam-type bridge creates large tensile stresses on the bottom of the beams. Since stone, masonry and unreinforced concrete have very little capacity to withstand tension, none of these materials can be used to make a reliable and efficient beam-type bridge of any significant span.
Can pudding make you taller?
Yes, pudding can make you taller. I am not sure how and why, but I heard it and looked it up and yes, it makes you taller. Also I had some and I grew, like an inch taller. So if you want to grow taller, eat pudding! :)
As a bodybuilder gains muscles can he get taller?
No, gaining muscles will not make you taller.
How do you make a spaghetti bridge stronger without making it heavy?
The usual engineering principles apply: the lightest possible beam has the greatest depth, with suitable struts along the length.
