Throughout the process, most supporting beams were mainly solid bars as they are good in tension and are more sturdy giving the bridge stronger structure. Other beams that didn’t take much load were changed
Pratt bridge design in order to maximize our efficiency with the limited amount of resources we were given.

I do feel a responsibility to do the research, to understand or at least try and understand what happened. This is especially the case as many of those affected are still alive.
