Friends remember bridge accident victim By MARSHA DORGAN
On Wednesday, workers were building a wooden structure, called a falsework, to support a reinforcing network of steel bars and serve as the form for the concrete deck of the bridge.
Emergency officials said workers underneath the bridge at the time of the collapse were adjusting hydraulic jacks used to hoist the wood framework in order to align the two sections of the bridge.
Officials believe one of the metal jacks gave way, causing eight beams of steel and several tons of wood to crash to the ground.------------------------------------------- posted 8:19 AM :: reference link ::
