	Case Study - Loysburg Bridge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The bridge that today sweeps gently across the stream and its companion meadowland is as at home in the rural countryside as is the meandering Yellow Creek and the spires and silos of the unassuming village of Loysburg.
		The bridge was ‘bent’ by placing the straight ‘stick’ beams atop staggered piers and the slight cantilevering of deck sections, easily accomplished within the structural capabilities of the massive beams.
		Entering the bridge from a slight downgrade at the northern approach, the roadway banks left-to-right through the first curve, flattens out to a low point in the center to accommodate drainage, then banks right-to-left through the opposite curve before flattening again at the southern approach.

		If the bridge is tilting forward towards the neck of the guitar, there is not enough tension and the springs need to be tightened or in some cases an extra spring added.
		If the bridge is tilting back the spring tension is to great and needs to be loosed or a spring removed.
		If the bridge is tilting back you will need to loosen the screws, begin with a small adjustment- a quarter or a half turn.

		However, the belly below the bridge was badly bowed, causing the bridge to tilt toward the fret board with the result that many of the bass strings rattled badly from lack of vertical pressure on the saddle.
		That is, one of the threaded brass bridge pins that comes with it holds the device on sufficiently well that additional screws and such are not necessary.
		It may be a peculiarity of the Yamaha 12 string, but the lower portion of the bridge is relatively thick and even when the top had resettled, all the bass strings still rattled badly when going through the holes in these brass pins because there was virtually zero string angle behind the saddle.

	Text transcript from South Park Bridge
		And because of this, the piers are somewhat floating in liquefiable soils so they tilt and the problem with tilting bridges is this part of the bridge moves, so that slight movements on the main pier results in large movements out at the tip.
		The bridge is also a large identity to the community itself, so there's an identity issue, you'd be taking away an identity which is crucial to the spirit of the community but moreover you'd be taking away one of the arteries that carries the economic blood into the neighborhood.
		If the South Park bridge was to be removed under the no action alternative, these que's would be a lot longer because the bridge currently serves between 20-and -24 thousand vehicles per day and a lot of them would travel over the First South bridge.

	Tilt bridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A tilt bridge is a type of moveable bridge which rotates about fixed endpoints rather than lifting or bending, as with a drawbridge.
		The tilting Gateshead Millennium Bridge spanning the River Tyne between Gateshead on the south bank and Newcastle upon Tyne on the north is a pedestrian bridge with two large hydraulic rams at each side that tilt the structure back allowing small watercraft to pass under.
		The resultant motion means it is sometimes referred to as the "eyelid bridge", since its shape is akin to the blinking of an eye if seen from along the river.

		Make sure that the lower part of the bridge is positioned on the treble side of the strings; the higher part should be towards the bass side of the strings...the G string should be located on the high point of the bridge.
		Now once the bridge is properly aligned between the two notches of the f soundholes, and the strings appear to be centered, and all strings are in their respective slots on the bridge, you can now view the bridge from the side.
		If the angle of the bridge is slightly tilted back, the pressure on the bridge is more evenly distributed which ensures a more stable bridge.

	Northpinellas: Cracks could shorten bridge's life
		The cracks were caused by flawed construction engineering that allowed the bridge spans to tilt too far out of balance when they were being poured, Harder said.
		DOT officials said Tuesday that the four columns supporting the bridge's tallest and widest span are so riddled with cracks they may have to be demolished and rebuilt.
		In December 2002, crews used explosives to drop an 80-foot section of the bridge span after it fell a foot and twisted when a section of scaffolding failed.

		This is to prevent your floating bridge from getting stuck to the knife edges on the posts (action studs) after you bend notes.

		So when city planners in the industrial town of Gateshead, in northeast England, picked a design for a new pedestrian and bike bridge to connect Gateshead with the historic city of Newcastle across the winding river Tyne, they decided that a break from tradition was in order.
		As the lower deck rises into the air, the upper arch descends on the other side until both halves are suspended opposite each other some 90 ft. in the air.
		The bridge is the centerpiece of a multimillion-dollar urban-renewal plan that will eventually connect a new arts center to hotels and restaurants on either shore.

	Care and Feeding of Fiddles
		If your strings break repeatedly, it means that there is a sharp spot that needs to be corrected somewhere on the nut, bridge, tailpiece, or fine tuner.
		Align the feet of the bridge with the inner notches cut in the ff-holes.
		If the soundpost is down, the fingerboard has come loose, or a crack or open seam is found, always loosen the strings immediately, and insert pads or towels to make sure that the tailpiece does not scratch the top.
