Tacoma Narrows Bridge • The main font of the bridge near Tacoma, Washington was 28000 ft long, 39 ft wide and the steel stiffening girders (shown during construction) were 8 ft. tall. • The bridge was open for traffic on July 1, 1940. In four months of active life of the bridge before failure, many transverse (vertical) modes of vibration were observed before November 7, 1940.
The reason they’re so popular is because the hexagon shape of the head is very versatile, it can be grabbed by tools from all angles and even by hand. • They’re easy to tighten and loosen thanks to their 6 sides, and you can access them from 360 degrees providing there’s space to move your tools.
