Apparently you can't understand what you read. Another bridge refers to a bridge on the east coast that had a cantilever section like the bay bridge. The 60’s happened over 39 years ago. And you still can not explain what type of metal the eye bar was made of. You know that strange town behind Oakland. They have a school there and the Dr that runs the department that trains engineers. For some reason Dr Bill (KGO) had him of his show and he went into detail as to the problems with the construction and other matters. He was on the outside experts team. He said that the bay bridge has been on a federal watch list for cracking and failing for years.
