Excerpt from De Pontibus: A Pocket-Book for Bridge Engineers For a railway company, the most satisfactory method of building bridges is either to have a permanent, competent bridge engineer in its employ, or to retain some specialist of established reputation to prepare specifications and complete detailed plans (not working drawings, however) for all its bridges, and to provide competent inspectors to see that during manufacture, shipment, and emotion the plans and specifications are strictly followed. The necessity for the specialist to stand between the pur chaser and the manufacturer Of structural steel is, as a general rule, not appreciated by the purchaser, unless he has already had some experience in letting contracts for and in the building of steel structures without engineering aid in the designing and supervision. When the purchaser puts himself in the hands of the manufacturer, he is pretty sure to get the worst of it for if the contract be let by schedule prices the strue ture is liable to be loaded down with useless metal, while if the contract he let for a lump sum the structure will probably be ruined by having the metal skinned out of it, especially in the most important parts, viz., the details. Moreover. The manufacturer is seldom capable of evolving a truly first-class design, for the reason that his training has always been in the line of his own pecuniary interests, which are to obtain the maximum Of pay for the minimum of structure; so that, even when given all the metal and money that he could ask for when preparing a design, he would not succeed in making a really good one, simply because of not knowing how. On the other hand, the specialist should stand between the contractor and the purchaser, so as to see that the latter does not take any undue advantage of the former by means of a harsh or unjust interpretation of the specifications, especially when the contractor has suffered loss or delay on account Of causes beyond his control.

Michigan's historic highway bridges are rapidly being torn down and replaced as they deteriorate or become unable to support increased traffic volumes and loads. While the state has the responsibility of providing safe bridges, historian Charles K. Hyde maintains that the state must also preserve many of these remaining historic structures to insure that future generations will have them to view and appreciate. In Historic Highway Bridges of Michigan, Hyde identifies Michigan's historically significant highway bridges within the broader contexts of American bridge design and construction in the 19th and 20th centuries. The book summarizes the improvement of highway bridge design in the United States and compares Michigan's experiences with national trends. To aid the reader interested in visiting the historic highway bridges of Michigan, regional maps show the location of bridges included in the text.
