Why not? The reason John Roebling designed the Brooklyn Bridge as a suspension bridge, is because every so often there is a storm and, some storms can have very high wind gusts, the bridge could collapse if, it was not because the wind moves the bridge during wind storms, and that is why it is suspenision.
Because the Golden Gate Bridge is a ytpe of bridge in which the deck is hung below suspension cables on vertical suspenders.
The Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge.
Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge.
None. Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge.
because it held a cable
Actually, a suspension bridge mostly has 2 or more towers. The towers on a bridge are used for support without them a bridge would collapse! :-)
Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge over the River Thames in London, England. It was designed by Sir Horace Jones.
There are two possible answers to this question. Tower Bridge is adjacent to the Tower of London and may be named after it or it could be named after the two towers at either end of the bridge which support the suspension cables.
It is a two tower has a suspension bridge.
The cables in the suspension bridge supports the suspension bridge.
It's a late nineteenth century Bascule - twin leaf at that. It is a sort of prefabricated Suspension bridge with the bascule machinery in the towers for the two folding leaves. This is a description of Tower Bridge - not London Bridge. ' It's also not a suspension bridge. A suspension bridge has a deck suspended from cables, and cannot be opened. The rest of the technical description is correct.
prisons The mechanics for the drawbridge were also kept in the towers
Tower Bridge is a combined suspension and bascule bridge which allows it to open for the passage of boats with tall masts. Each of the bascules (which resemble a castle drawbridge) is 100 foot long - about 30 metres.
