← HistoryWhich structural consequence arises when lateral bracing fails along Viking rope bridges?
A)Deck cables experience excessive torsion✓
B)Increased load capacity ensues rapidly
C)Uniform cable tension is maintained
D)Ablative endothermic effects increase sharply
💡 Explanation
Excessive torsion occurs because the absence of lateral bracing allows greater rotational freedom via Torsional stress transferring to the deck, therefore twisting occurs, rather than forces being distributed properly inhibiting cable torsion.
