	Seongsu Bridge at AllExperts
		The cantilever bridge was completed in 1979 and its total length is 1160 m.
		This was due to structural failure as the bridge was not welded properly.
		Afterwards, the bridge was supposed to be repaired, but because of a weakness in the structure, it had to be completely redesigned and rebuilt.

		Unlike suspension bridges where the load is supported at either end of the bridge, the strength of a cantilever bridge comes from a structure or structures positioned towards the middle of the bridge.
		The bridge usually consists of three spans, with the ground or footing supports at either end of the bridge providing additional anchorage for the two outer spans, and the central cantilevers, positioned over the channel that is being crossed, providing the support for a central span.
		These bridges, along with the 1897 Niagara Railway Arch Bridge, were great feats of engineering and, along with the scenic attractions of the river at the falls and the beginning of rail passenger excursions in 1878, brought thousands of tourist visitors to Niagara Falls.

	Extending Employment Beyond Retirement Age: The Case of Health Care Managers in Quebec - Health - RedOrbit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Such a choice is often due to the need for a second career or a bridge job between periods of retirement, the need to supplement income, the need for greater health insurance coverage, or just a desire to feel like a contributing member of society.
		The higher a retiree's salary, the less likely he or she was to engage in bridge employment.
		However, bridge employment may be viewed as an excellent solution for some staffing problems since it would allow the institutions to rely on an experienced and knowledgeable workforce instead of contingent workers.

		We do not mean that the bridges that symbolize the "Miracle on the Han" collapsed one right after another.
		But in the sense that the whole country was left with the feeling it had been hit over the head with a blunt object, the past year did feel like it felt when Seongsu Bridge collapsed in October 1994.
		The biggest shock was the heartbreaking collapse of the legend of Hwang Woo Suk, who had been considered Korea's greatest scientist and a national hero.
