Abstract- The development of De-Sauty’s bridge for capacitance measurement has been followed by various modifications and improvements in the original circuit. Lately Schering bridge and transformer ratio arm bridge have been used for measurement of capacitance in a circuit.Today there is instrumentation available that makes use of these bridges in real life such as that can measure the quality of electrical insulation at power frequency as well as in touch-sensitive sensors.

Truss bridges are recognizable because of their numerous‚ relatively small interconnected triangles. This framework of triangles is used for is strength to withstand tension and compression forces. They are considered a light-weight yet a very stiff form of construction. At first they were built of wood‚ then with the discovery of welding they began to build then using iron‚ then steel. Occasionally‚ a combination of the materials may be used. There are actually 30 different kinds of truss bridges

Truss Bridge is a one bridge style from a variety other bridges types. The truss bridge is made with a simple skeletal structure. This type of bridges is conceded as a one of the strongest simple design and cost less. Truss bridges were founded early in the history‚ and they were built from wood and iron at the first time‚ which was different than any other bridge that was made of stone. However‚ nowadays‚ truss bridges are made of steel. Truss bridges have many types include‚ the Pratt‚ the Warren

Tacoma Narrows Bridge A lot of things can go wrong when building or designing a major building‚ plane‚ bridge‚ or even a road. Engineers face the challenges to overcome these flaws or problems everyday when they are trying to design structures. The primary causes of engineering disasters are usually: Human factors‚ design flaws‚ material failures‚ extreme conditions or environments‚ and combinations of these reasons put together. There are many things an engineer has to look for when designing

lthough the idea of a bridge spanning the Golden Gate was not new‚ the proposal that eventually took hold was made in a 1916 San Francisco Bulletin article by former engineering student James Wilkins.[15] San Francisco’s City Engineer estimated the cost at $100 million‚ impractical for the time‚ and fielded the question to bridge engineers of whether it could be built for less.[9] One who responded‚ Joseph Strauss‚ was an ambitious but dreamy engineer and poet who had‚ for his graduate thesis‚ designed

amount of downward force remarkably with respect to the weight of the truss itself‚ i.e. to construct a truss that would hold a relatively high efficiency score. And construct the bridge in such a way to as to keep the deflection of the structure at minimal. Introduction First of all‚ what is a truss? In an engineering view‚ a truss is a structure that is made up of series of triangular unit made of straight members that are connected at junctions known as nodes. External forces created by bodies

Bridge On The River Kwai. The film deals with the situation of British and American prisoners of war‚ who were captured by the Japanese during World War II and were forced to build a bridge over the river Kwai‚ in order to accommodate Japanese Burma-Siam railway. At first the prisoners were planning to sabotage the construction of the bridge‚ and to not finish the construction at the scheduled date. Because of that decision‚ the Japanese were forcing British officers to be working along the ordinary

The forced segregation of children of minorities and migrant workers from other children can have serious negative effects on the capacity of these children to integrate with other children and into the society in general. In particular‚ segregation of children into schools for mentally handicapped children can severely
