  1. To avoid lifting of the bridge of the depth micrometer, make sure that the spindle is correctly positioned before taking a reading. The spindle should be parallel to the base of the depth micrometer and should be positioned directly over the object being measured.
  2. Make sure that the object being measured is firmly supported and that the work surface is free of debris that may interfere with the depth micrometer’s operation.
  3. Before taking a reading, check that the anvil and spindle are perfectly aligned with each other.
  4. Avoid pressing down on the depth micrometer too hard as this can cause the bridge to lift.
  5. Always use the correct size micrometer for the job and the correct size anvil for the object being measured.
  6. If the bridge does start to lift, stop and correct the problem before taking any further readings.
  7. Before taking a reading, always make sure that the depth micrometer is properly zeroed.
  8. When using a depth micrometer, always keep your hand away from the spindle and anvil.
  9. Make sure that the depth micrometer is properly maintained and stored in a dry, clean environment.
  10. Lastly, always use the depth micrometer with care and caution to avoid any damage or inaccuracy.

Are beam bridges safe?

Yes! All type of bridges are safe, provided they are designed and executed properly. There are many factors that decide the type of a proposed bridge. It could be the span of bridge, depth of river, asthetics, budget restrictions, availability of materials, etc.


What could have been done to stabilize the Tacoma Narrows bridge?

The Tacoma Narrows Bridge was built in a location with high winds. High velocity winds can create an aerodynamic instability called flutter. Flutter may be mitigated by a stiff structure. That bridge was very flexible in torsion (more commonly known as twist). There were many warning signs of a disaster - the bridge had wild oscillations in high winds many times before it collapsed. If you ever see a video of a stop sign rotating about its post in a hurricane, as often done by on scene news crews, the phenomenon is completely analogous. Of course, during "normal" winds, the stop sign would not flutter - during the hurricane the wind speed exceeds the speed when we see the onset of flutter. All aircraft are designed to ensure the maximum speed of the aircraft is below the speed at the onset of flutter for its wings and other lifting surfaces. Here as well, the wing design may be stiffened if required to raise the flutter onset speed. After the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapsed, many bridge designs were reviewed by engineers to ensure they would not have the same fate. The Whitestone Bridge, which crosses the East River from Queens to the Bronx in New York, was one that was stiffened by side bracing to raise the torsional stiffness and remove the concern about flutter. To my knowledge, that bridge was never subject to winds at a high enough speed in its pre-stiffened state to induce severe oscillations like those seen on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.

How deep is the River Thames in London?

the best accurateIn the estuary the charted depth (which can for most general purposes be considered as the depth at low water) is about 20 metres at its deepest . To get the depth of water at Mean High Water Springs (MHWS) you can add about 5 metres to that depth. At Mean High Water Neaps (MHWN) you only need to add about 4 metres.At London Bridge the charted depth is about 1.8 metres. Add about 7.1 metres to get the depth of water at MHWS and 5.9 metres at MHWN.Given it is 215 miles long and continually in motion there would be hundreds of ever changing measurements.

How far should your tiller rudder extend into the water for a 20' swing keel sloop?

There's no single right answer that will cover any 20' sloop, the size and shape of the keel the form of the hull and how the sails are ballanced will all affect what size rudder is needed, as well as the shape of it. Also the answer will depend on what handling characteristics are desired. As for just the depth of the rudder, usually it will go to slightly less depth than the keel when the keel is at it's deepest. Some lifting keel yachts, especially smaller ones, also have a lifting rudder.


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.
