Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - How can a massive, heavily trafficked steel suspension bridge suddenly and violently disintegrate into a freezing river in a matter of seconds The terrifying collapse of the Silver Bridge in 1967 remains one of the deadliest and most consequential structural failures in American history.Connecting Ohio and West Virginia, the Silver Bridge was built using a unique, cost-saving 'eyebar' chain design. What engineers failed to realize was that this architecture was non-redundant; if a single link failed, the entire bridge would instantly fall. Over forty years, a microscopic, 0.1-inch stress crack formed inside one of the steel joints, hidden entirely from visual inspection. During rush hour traffic just before Christmas, that single tiny crack finally gave way, plunging forty-six people into the deadly currents of the Ohio River.This gripping engineering forensic analysis explores the lethal intersection of physics and negligence. It documents the harrowing rescue efforts, the painstaking metallurgical reconstruction of the steel, and the immediate, panicked creation of the national bridge inspection standards.Witness the fragile threads of modern infrastructure. The Silver Bridge disaster is a chilling reminder of how a microscopic chemical flaw can effortlessly destroy thousands of tons of steel.…

Condition: Near Fine. dj. First edition. First printing of this educational survey that combines advice on screenwriting and directing with the scenario scripts for the films "A Kiss for Cinderella," "The Last Command," and "The Scarlet Letter." "Patterson was one of the earliest university lecturers on motion pictures," notes the Women Film Pioneers Project; for her, "the writer, and not the director, was the guiding vision behind a film." This is clear in MOTION PICTURE CONTINUITIES, where she emphasizes the aesthetic composition of the scenes and placements of the actors within a shot. Her career is ripe for further study, as her "desire to teach in adult-education and outreach programs" was "rarely recognized as important by chroniclers of university history" (Women Film Pioneers Project). 7.5'' x 4.75''. Original red cloth binding. Original unclipped ($3.00) pictorial dust jacket. Black-and-white pictorial frontispiece with three black-and-white plates. x, [4], 246 pages. Jacket with some edgewear and a bit of rubbing. One tiny spot of soil to fore-edge. Clean and bright. Near fine in very good plus dust jacket.…
