Monitored Fracture

Cracks and fractures come with the territory when it comes to steel structures and the 1950s Tacoma Narrows Bridge is no exception. A dedicated crew that serves the bridge has been monitoring this fracture for a long time. Thursday, Sept. 2, 2010, crews determined too much change occurred in relation to the crack and closed two lanes at noon to get it fixed.
