Gary S Wrote:Greg, that looks perfect. It all makes sense now. The big bridge beams aren't one piece spanning the entire distance. They are actually sections, supported by the inverted T. Mark was right! This Big Blue thing is alright. And Mark, even though this is Greg's bridge, I appreciate that you discovered how the bridge is, because the prototype just seemed funny, the huge beams supported by the relatively small horizontal piece.
@Gary, I think that your mean is a good conclusion to this steel construction. The inverted T-beam is base for the sectioned H-beams. This is a very simple working technology and it is very good realized by this model.
@Greg, a very nice looking model and a construction built with help of forum members here. The best reason that we need all these discussion and hints and our technical knowledge of all.
Cheers, Bernd
