		It is the smallest of the three bridges, and yet it has a span of 194 feet, being 35 feet wide on top but only 10 feet thick in the center.
		Three miles down Armstrong Canyon, at its junction with White Canyon, the Kachina or, as it is better known, Caroline Bridge, is reached.
		As the three bridges are located about 4 miles apart, saddle horses or mules will be needed by those not accustomed to hiking if they wish to go on to the Augusta and Caroline Bridges.

		Three Bridges is a neighbourhood within the town of Crawley, in the county of West Sussex in England.
		Three Bridges was a tiny hamlet, which first began to grow with the coming of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway in 1841.
		Three Bridges continues to be the site of an important rail station at the intersection of the London to Brighton line and the London to Portsmouth Line (via Horsham), but the branch line to East Grinstead closed in the mid 1960s.

		Bridges are truly ubiquitous -- a natural part of everyday life.
		A bridge provides passage over some sort of obstacle: a river, a valley, a road, a set of railroad tracks...
		This is a major factor in determining what type of bridge to use, and by the time you are done reading this article you will understand why.

	New York State Covered Bridges - Bridges at North Blenhiem -Three Centurys
		A steel truss bridge was built a short distance downstream in about 1930, and in 2004 a construction project was begun on a new highway bridge to replace the steel truss.
		The new steel curved bridge, under construction, is seen in the foreground with the green roof of the covered bridge straight ahead on the left.
		The covered portion of the bridge is 232 feet long, the trusses 228 feet and the clear span of 210 feet between abutments.

	Mark Ketchum's Carquinez Strait Bridge Page
		The cable-stayed and suspension bridge options were further developed during this period, to incorporate a wider deck and structural changes to enhance economy and performance.
		The suspension bridge alternative was selected for final design and construction, based on superior seismic performance, shorter construction schedule, less risk of ship impact due to fewer number of piers in the water, less maintenance on cable system, better aesthetics, and less construction risk.
		Seismic performance of the bridge was validated by comprehensive inelastic computer modeling under propagating incoherent wave fields from a suite of earthquakes, and verifying that stringent limits on strains in concrete, rebar and structural steel were not exceeded.

	"One in three bridges in DC metro region need improvement "
		These bridges no longer meet modern design standards for safety features such as lane widths or alignment with connecting roads or no longer are adequate for the volume of traffic being carried.
		Keeping bridges in good condition can be enhanced by the use of improved maintenance practices and the use of improved construction materials.
		The more critical safety problem of older bridges is that they often do not meet current safety standards for lane widths and street and highway approaches (alignments) that may reduce the safety of the bridge.

		The artistic trio of bridges connecting the North Side to the Golden Triangle is known affectionately as "The Three Sisters." The 6th, 7th and 9th Street Bridges are chain suspension bridges and they are the only example in the world of three identical bridges positioned side-by-side-by-side.

		As Three Bridges United, the club achieved senior status in 1952 when they became founder members of the newly formed Division Two of the Sussex County Football League.
		Bridges were the best supported club in the County League in 2003/04 and 2004/05 (remarkable given their proximity to Crawley Town), but lost their crown to Eastbourne Town in 2005/06 as attendances dropped for the second season in succession in the light of some disappointing form.
		Bridges may have reached the semi-finals of the RUR Charity Cup in 2005/06 (lost to Whitehawk), but manager Ali Rennie will definately be looking for a big improvement on their League form, as their final position of 15th clearly illustrates.

		The result: a permanent concrete bridge that was built at one location and moved into place...a feat that has only been done once before in the United States with a steel bridge and never done with a concrete structure.
		The new Oak Creek Bridge completed in 1992, was designed to resemble the old bridge with the use of architectural effects and rock wall facing on the new abutments.
		Both bridges were constructed in 1936-37 with a 24 foot clear roadway and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places as technically significant examples of the girder-ribbed arch type bridge structure.

	Three Sisters (Pittsburgh) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Three Sisters are historically significant because they are the only trio of nearly identical bridges, as well as the first self-anchored suspension spans, built in the United States.
		Note that a large driving force for these bridges all being done at once was that the predecessor bridges were all not in compliance with War department restrictions on bridges crossing navigable waters (of which the Allegheny and Monongahela, not to mention the Ohio, included)...
		The Seventh Street Bridge was razed in 1924, and the War Department forced the razing of the 9th as well, despite the inconvenience to the city.

	THE MARKET AND THREE BRIDGES
		As Ales and I joined the throngs of people going to or coming from the main market across the Three Bridges, we were now encumbered not only with two empty wicker baskets and two over-exuberant toddlers but with a stroller filled to the brim with an infant boy born on the last day of March.
		On the market side of the river, where the bridge could be said to begin, the three segments are contiguous, almost touching one another.
		And the bridge that held the picture together, which led across the waters to the pleasing totality of the market, was more than a mere conveyance.

		This is also the reason why bridges tend to be found within canyons, sometimes quite hidden, whereas arches are usually high and exposed, as they are often the last remnants of rock cliffs and ridges.
		The Bridges: A 9 mile one-way loop road has several overlooks of the three bridges, currently known as Sipapu, Kachina and Owachomu after their names were changed to reflect the Hopi Indian history of the area.
		The last of these three is probably the most spectacular, and also the easiest to hike to - the path into the canyon underneath the bridge is only a few hundred meters.

	Removing Existing Segmental Concrete Bridges
		As bridge engineers we are more used to designing and building new segmental concrete bridges than demolishing them.

		One of the three bridges was removed by making a saw-cut at the midspan, and then removing one segment at a time, alternating from one side of the cantilever to the other side.

		Richardson worked on bridges other than the Sixth, Seventh, and Ninth Street projects and did not know who actually proposed the self-anchored suspension design for the trio, but his knowledge of the staff's workings led him to presume that Wilkerson, the consulting engineer, was responsible.
		Robinson used similar towers on the Rondout Bridge at Kingston, New York, which was constructed in 1922 and used a stiffening truss that functioned apart from the towers.
		These bridges are unique in the United States for the clustering of three similar bridges in such close proximity, their place as the first American self-anchored suspension bridges, and as significant examples of eye-bar suspension bridges.
