The Brooklyn Bridge in New York City construction cost about twenty-seven lives. The first man to die, the designer of the bridge, John Roebling, an engineer of immigrants Prussia.
However, the bridge is an impressive monument inspired by the courage, skill, determination and perseverance is risking Roebling family and the workers, illness and death, its construction
In 1869, John Roebling was planning what would be the largest suspension bridge in the world. Would span EastRiver connecting the towns of Manhattan in New York and Brooklyn. It would be more than a mile long.
It concluded thirteen years old and difficult to bridge. Tragically, John Roebling missed thirteen years. He injured his foot when it is destroyed between a pylon and a ferry, while the area of investigation.
He refused, as his anesthesia crushed amputated toes and then tries to cure his foot by dropping water on it day and night. The water may also have infected toes. Finallyarrested development and died in agony jaw of tetanus.
Even when he was in hospital, he asked regularly on the progress of the bridge. His condition has worsened, but has also contributed to solve problems on the spot. His great determination and incredible concentration on work in hand was passed to his son and daughter-in-law.
Washington had seen the death and the pain came on the battlefields of the Civil War, but the painful death of his father, still powerful him. She was a member liabilitythemselves:
"I feel that it is not a problem for my father in a hospital at once. But my father had very strong views and looked at hospitals as the abode of the devil - and doctors like criminals."
Washington Roebling took over the role of his father as chief engineer of the project. Worked with the same energy and drive that led him to the rank of colonel in the Union army during the Civil War. Like his father, he unwisely put work ahead of health, butone can only admire his commitment.
Washington under the direct supervision of construction of submarine pontoons on which the towers of the bridge would be built mass. For this reason, work underwater, has suffered several times, with decompression sickness or the bends, as in 1872
But thanks to the intelligence, skill, and close the continued support of his wife, Emily, Washington in order to manage the project. Sent news about Emily, his engineers chosen, praised theEmily was to understand how you develop the implementation of this project very challenging engineering.
Sometimes, Washington uses a telescope from his home in Brooklyn Heights to keep in touch with events on the banks of the River East, but his main support and the media took his wife.
Emily had read, and passed every scrap of news about the bridge from the start and had worked alongside her husband during the entire construction effort.
EmilyWashington, discussed the detailed plans and she has shared all his bridges and his father's plans and dreams. Emily has started many topics related to Civil Engineering, tells me that she could support her husband to investigate. These subjects were mathematics, strength of construction materials and cable.
His combination of being able to work hard, communicate effectively and capacity, the technical expertise necessary to learnAchievement of the objectives of the husband.
If a commission of inquiry was by the American Society of Civil engineers convened to determine whether, as Chief Engineer Washington Roebling, Emily effectiveness in combating the job at that time convinced that the Roebling should be responsible, be eliminated.
The bridge was finally inaugurated in 1883. The first person to walk on Emily Roebling. Commemorative plaques in honor of Emily services are installed on both the Brooklyn and NewYork towers of the Brooklyn Bridge.
The bridge itself is a monument to the work of both John and Washington Roebling.
The history of the bridge is filled with inspiring lessons of success. John Roebling is a risk due to leave Germany for the United States. The risk paid off. At that time, Germany had no money and the desire for large, new technology works.
The Government of the United States had on the opposite side to put aside money for construction projects promoted. Success is often the risk ofTransition from a blind alley somewhere with more potential.
My father was an engineer, who went from England to China, where I was born at the beginning of World War II. The risk did not pay off when we finally in a concentration camp, but it certainly led to an experience of character education for the whole family!
We were then rescued by American soldiers. One of my most valuable asset is an aircraft of the balls, which I found in one of them. My father soon pulled usIran to work on the aqueduct in Tehran. This step was successful.
John Roebling built a number of major bridges around the United States before he built the knowledge and skills necessary to successfully plan the ambitious Brooklyn Bridge. People in general trust by starting small and large end.
He showed lazer focus on the project, even though he was dying. He made the wrong choice with hydrotherapy, but has the right decisions for the bridge. Probably no otherEngineer in the United States could have planned this bridge. Mastering skills makes the master or mistress, in the case of Emily, is invaluable.
Washington has shown the same concentration and skill, as her father. He shared the dangers of his men in working life in cells. This is the sign of the great leaders like Alexander the Great, and Nelson, both injuries, along with their husbands.
His determination and leadership for the completion of one of the main bridges in the world has brought. Has passed oneTo obstacle after another. Including those dealing with the threads below, was supplied by a dealer with no scruples. Successful people do not capitulate in the face of crippling problems.
Emily has shown what we can achieve accurate and intelligent woman. They did what most people would think was impossible. If you do know what to do, she did not give up. Just learned the skills needed to continue. He had enough confidence to learn on the job market.
Their courageTrust and evidence has been presented in a century, as middle and upper class women were regarded as mere ornaments exceptional cases. Obviously I disagree.
Recently, the Internet, Sharlene Raven has resumed its Internet business by her husband, Scott, when struck with the disease. Both the Ravens produce excellent products that I know I can trust.
Most successful people learn to help others depend for their success. They also ignore the limits settheir skills and results emanating from the opinions of others.
To succeed, we must learn the skills and knowledge to the objectives we are pursuing, even if there are relevant in the workplace, to learn. In fact, it is often easier to learn on the job in an ivory tower of dust and dirt of reality.
We must believe that we are the people that can do the job. We need to work, like John and Washington, with the energy and concentration, whether we like it or feelnot.
Both the Brooklyn Bridge, Roebling, the builder and are a source of inspiration for the world.
