To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The site for the bridge having been selected, it is generally of gaps. necessary to measure the width of the gap, and if the bottom is to be used for supports to ascertain its section before com- mencing work. Direct measurement of the width of the gap by means of tape, wire or line gives the best result. Over water, boats or floats may be used to support a long line. If direct measurement is not practicable, resort must be had to a geometrical method {see "Military Engineering," Part I, para. ...23 (jf) ). One of the simplest of these is shown on PI. II, Fig. 1. There AC is the line of proposed bridge. CD is laid out at right angles to AC, D being taken at any convenient distance. Then DE is laid out at right angles to AD and meets AC produced in E. CD X CD Then AC = — ™ , and AB, the width of gap, is obtained by deducting BC from AC. This method involves only the laying out of two right angles and the measurement of two lines. If the gap does not contain water the section can be obtained by direct measurement below an actual or visual line joining the two banks.
