Why is the Eiffel Tower named as it is?

Answer 1

What looks like triangles are inter-crossed trusses of wrought iron. The Eiffel tower being a tall structure, the engineers had to face the problem of balance, equilibrium and resistance.

The use of trusses and triangles actually increases the strength of the structure to a huge extent, because among all known polygons, the triangle is the only figure that CANNOT be misshaped or lose its original shape, unless acted upon with extreme forces (depending of course on the resistance of the material used). That is, because a triangle only has three sides, all of which are connected to other, so there is no angle where a side can freely "pivot" about.

This technique is a common feature of most metallic structures and huge constructions.

Answer 2

It was named after the designer and the founder of the Eiffel Tower, Gustave Eiffel.

Answer 3

Because it is named after the French engineer Gustave Eiffel, who championed the construction and whose company eventually built it.
It was designed by Gustav Eiffel.

Answer 4

It was designed so that the maximum torque created by the wind is balanced enough to withstand the resistance.

Answer 5

The triangle is the most rigid geometrical shape. It adds great stability to the Eiffel Tower and any other structures into which it is incorporated.

Answer 6

better looks

good style
