Why did Andrew Carnegies company first use iron to build bridges?
Andrew Carnegie's company initially used iron to build bridges due to its strength, availability, and cost-effectiveness compared to other materials at the time. Iron was a widely used material in the 19th century, allowing for the construction of durable and reliable structures. The use of iron in bridge building also facilitated the expansion of transportation networks, which was crucial for industrial growth. As technology advanced, Carnegie later embraced steel, which offered even greater strength and flexibility.
What are cable stayed bridges made of?
The primary building materials in cable-stayed bridges are steel, which is used in the cables and also as the reinforcing material in the concrete, which is the other primary building material.
How is geometry used in building bridges?

Why Iron is used in constructing bridges and houses?
Iron is used in construction due to its strength and durability. In bridges, iron is often used because it can support heavy loads and provide stability. In houses, iron is commonly used in structural elements like beams and columns to provide strength and support to the building.
What what was the problem with the iron bridges?
The problem with iron bridges was that the material was not as reliable as carbon steel, so it was replaced starting in the late 1800s and was completely unavailable for bridge building by the early 1900s. Bridges in the late 1700s were made of cast iron, but, by the early 1800s, cast iron gave way to wrought iron.
Why is iron used to construct bridges and houses?
Iron is not used to build houses, but iron is used in other things because it is strong.

What were stone bridges used for?
Stone bridges were built to get over rivers etc, before iron or steel was used.
What is used to make steel bridges?

Which is better an angle iron or a pipe?
Heavier Angle iron is often used as a structural element in building and bridges, while lighter angle iron is used for a variety of supports such as an adjustable bed frame. Pound for pound angle is more rigid than standard pipe.
What is the strongest material used for building bridges?
Steel
