      It's getting ridiculous with the Americans taking over all of the videos we can't even hear about the Sydney Harbour bridge without hearing a Yank who can't pronounce words correctly . And of course you make the video last as long as possible so TH-cam will give you money. getting sick to death of hearing your accent I really am. You may love the sound of your own voice but we don't

      ​@@janami-dharmam I have been taught in my mathematics classes that the curve is a catenary. When you say "parabola is an approximation" do you mean that engineers make that approximation out of need for convenience, or do you mean that mathematically there is a similarity between the two curves❔

      @Jack_Callcott_AU, A catenary shaped hanging chain is just a real world illustration for principles that are still applicable to an arched bridge with a parabolic shape.
      And since the shapes are slightly different, so will the mathematical functions that model them.

    catenary curves and parabolas have slightly different equations, and it's catenary that are the primary curves used in self supporting structures ;) They're very similar in shape and _sometimes_ are interchangeable, but they are two different things.

    Or is the parabola so similar to the catenary that the difference between the two is minimal?
    Is the catenary the most efficient form of load transmission, if not why parábola it's better than catenari?

      It's a good test really and pays homage. The builders of this bridge were from the north east of England. They built the Tyne bridge too in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Coincidentally it was also where the first steam locomotives we're invented and train tracks. So it makes sense historically that they test the load with trains.

    A Little Fun Fact: the original plan for the Panama Canal was to make it a “Sea Level Canal”. This was proved to be feasible. It would have been further East of Panama and would have included Present day Colombian territory. The 2 reasons as to why they did not make it so was not because of Colombia but they saw no Money and Power/Control by making it a Sea Level Canal so they went with the Locks instead.

    1:48. Pretty sure that the triangle (A-frame) is stronger if(!) the load is only applied in the middle as in your example. Scissor lifts are a good example where such a design is used. Of course that is not practical for a bridge where the load needs to be distributed across the whole length.
