eyebar

The failure was exacerbated by a high level of residual stress in the eyebar.

That was just the first step in the rebirth of the old Eyebar space; the next will be unveiled this weekend.

A dark eyebar and bars along the fins are commn.

Growth of the crack was probably exacerbated by residual stress in the eyebar created during manufacture.

When the traveler reaches the opposite anchorage the loop is placed over an open anchor eyebar.

The original retrofitting plans are on schedule to be completed by Tuesday morning, he said, but progress replacing the cracked eyebar is less certain.

The pieces that failed were parts of major repairs done last month after state inspectors discovered a crack in an "eyebar," an important structural beam.

Ney said Thursday the crack in the eyebar has not gotten any bigger as a result of Tuesday's failure.

In structural engineering and construction, an eyebar is a straight bar, usually of metal, with a hole ("eye") at each end for fixing to other components.

The rods that broke were holding a saddle-like cap that had been installed to strengthen the cracked eyebar.

"When this eyebar fractured, this is very serious element of this part of the bridge.

Official investigations in 1971 determined it was caused by stress corrosion cracking in an eyebar in a suspension chain.

A closed eyebar will typically have a rectangular cross section of constant thinness throughout its length and a constant width for all but the ends.

One type of lenticular truss consists of arcuate upper compression chords and lower eyebar chain tension links.

(The failure of a single eyebar was found to be the cause of the collapse of the Silver Bridge over the Ohio River).

Murphy's truss design consisted of double-intersection counter-diagonals, and along with the eyebar and pin connections, permitted longer iron bridge spans.

This bridge replaced a 1928 eyebar suspension bridge that was closed immediately following the collapse of the similarly-designed Silver Bridge in 1967.

But plans to reopen it by Tuesday morning's rush hour were cast into doubt during an inspection of the east span, where workers found a "significant crack" in an eyebar.

A tie, strap , tie rod, eyebar, guy-wire, suspension cables, or wire ropes, are an examples of linear structural components designed to resist tension.

J. W. Murphy further modified Whipple's truss design in 1859 by designing the first truss bridge with pinned eyebar connections.

This contributes greater redundancy; a few flawed strands in the hundreds used pose very little threat, whereas a single bad link or eyebar can cause failure of the entire bridge.

He owns the D.C. nightclub Eyebar, a Mercedes-Benz and a Denali SUV.

When the lower side of the eyebar failed, all the load was transferred to the other side of the eyebar, which then failed by ductile overload.

The rods that snapped held a clamp that was supposed to keep the fractured beam, or "eyebar," together, said UC Berkeley civil engineering professor Abolhassan Astaneh-Asl.

Investigation of the wreckage pointed to the cause of the collapse being the failure of a single eyebar in a suspension chain, due to a small defect 0.1 inch (2.5 mm) deep.
