Torque is used in bridges to lift a portion of it up, right! Well at the hinges the machine applies a force outwards and by newtons's third law of motion their will exist another equally opposite force on the other side of the bridge. Thus the torque develops.

Why do you have truss bridges?

Truss bridges are lighter than beam girder bridges. They take up more height but are strong and carry loadd in tension and compression rather than bending.

What are two major forces that bridges deal with?

Two major forces that bridges deal with are compression and tension. Compression forces act to push or squeeze the material together, while tension forces act to pull the material apart. Bridges are designed to distribute these forces to ensure the structure can support the weight it carries.

How do you release torque master system tension on part?

To release tension on a Torque Master system, you will first need to locate the adjustment or release screws on the part. Turn the adjustment screws counterclockwise to release tension gradually. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions to avoid damage to the system.


How does tension affect bridges?

Tension: The curve of the arch and its ability to force the presser outward reduces the 'pulling apart' effect on the bottom of the bridge.

How do you correctly tension belts and chains?

One has to tension belts and chains according to what torque is needed on an engine. The tension varies upon each engine. If one needs this done one should look into a mechanic.
