How is the weight distributed on Brooklyn bridge?

The Brooklyn Bridge is a hybrid cable-stayed/suspension bridge in New York City. It spans the East River between the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. The bridge has a main span of 1,595.5 feet (486.3 m) and a total length of 6,016 feet (1,833 m). The bridge was designed by John A. Roebling and completed in 1883.

The weight of the Brooklyn Bridge is distributed between the cables, towers, and anchorages. The cables are made of steel wire and are suspended from the towers. The towers are made of granite and limestone and are anchored into the bedrock. The anchorages are made of concrete and are located at each end of the bridge.

The weight of the bridge is distributed in such a way that the stresses on the cables, towers, and anchorages are within safe limits. The bridge is designed to withstand a wind speed of 100 miles per hour (160 km/h).

The Brooklyn Bridge is a remarkable engineering feat and is considered to be one of the most iconic landmarks in New York City.
