Question

Where the girders supporting bridges mounted on rollers?


Open in App
Solution

  1. When engineers use iron girders to make a bridge they fix them at one end only while the other end rests on rollers.
  2. This end is then free to expand in summer and contract in winter to avoid collapsing of the bridge.
  3. That's why the girders are supporting bridges mounted on rollers.
