Golden Gate Bridge wanted it to be painted with black and yellow stripes to ensure visibility by passing ships. Senior engineer Charles Alton Ellis, collaborating remotely with Moisseiff, was the principal engineer of the project. Moisseiff produced the basic structural design, introducing his "deflection theory" by which a thin, flexible roadway would flex in the wind, greatly reducing stress by transmitting forces via suspension cables to the bridge towers. Although the Golden Gate Bridge design has proved sound, a later Moisseiff design, the original Tacoma Narrows Bridge, collapsed in a strong windstorm soon after it was completed, because of an unexpected aeroelastic flutter.
West Gate Bridge Australia behind the Macleay River Bridge and the Houghton Highway along with its twin the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge, with the longest being Melbourne’s Bolte Bridge at . It is twice as long as the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and is one of the highest bridges in Australia, most notably trailing the more iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. The bridge passes over Westgate Park, a large environmental and recreational reserve created during the bridge's construction. The bridge carries up to 200,000 vehicles per day. The West Gate Bridge carries five lanes of motor vehicle traffic in each direction, therefore a 10 lane
