What are interesting facts about the golden gate bridge?
The Golden Gate Bridge is painted red, but called Golden because of the sun. Its steel cables are long enough to circle the Earth three times! If the US Navy had its way, the bridge might have been painted in black and yellow strips, for ships to see it clearly. Over 1,200 suicides have occurred from jumping off the bridge. The Golden Gate Bridge is the most photographed bridge in the entire world.

How much does the earth curve between the towers of the golden gate bridge?
6in
When building the Golden Gate Bridge did they take into account the curvature of the earth?
Yes
When was Golden Earth Girl created?
Golden Earth Girl was created in 1993.
How is the Golden Gate bridge landmark special in design?
That style of suspension bridge is not unique, but it is huge. It was the largest span of that type when it was built and for many years afterwards. Even today there are only two on earth that match it. One for height, the other for length.
Which bridge design is most earthquake resistant?
There are many factors to consider in this question and many types of bridge structure. The structure of a bridge is designed to resist the expected loads that will act on it. The main loads that usually act on a bridge are: - gravity (an acceleration downwards towards the centre of the Earth) on the bridge itself, - gravity on any objects on the bridge, - wind loads on the bridge ( can be in any direction but depends on exposure) - earthquake loads The loads experienced by the bridge in an earthquake can be as strong as or stronger than gravity (9.8ms-2), and act in many directions changing rapidly. A bridge designed to resist these therefore needs to have a structure that can resist significant forces in many directions, (to picture these forces it may help to imagine a model of the bridge being tossed from hand to hand, twisted and shaken), or it can be isolated from the earthquake forces by allowing the earth to move up down and around while the bridge sits quietly. If we look at the example of a simple suspension bridge for one person to walk over, made from some steel cables and wire mesh: - it is light and will not need to resist huge forces (Force= mass.acceleration), - it has the advantage of the elasticity of the steel, - it has the disadvantage that if it is not under much tension ( ie. has slack cables), these may be snapped rapidly in different directions in an earthquake, (picture a whip being used) which will put big loads on them.
Is the land bridge the last bridge that was made?
If you are referring to the Bering strait land bridge, it wasn't made but was part of the earth. It was an ice bridge.
Why do forces act on bridges?
For a start, it's unavoidable that gravity acts on the bridge. Next, if the bridge is not to fall through to the center of the Earth, Earth must push up on the bridge. There may also be forces caused by wind.
What were the some of the challenges of building this particular bridge?
The curvature of the Earth had to be taken into account when the bridge was built.
What is Wagner earth device?
it is used to remove all the earth resistance from the bridge network.
