For drainage so the water doesn't pool, then no big icy patches in winter, common sense people
Here’s something a little more interesting then a drainage hole, for those that don’t know that is,, bridges are not solid from one side to the other, they are installed in sections and placed upon what’s called bridge cushions, and if you stand in the middle of one you’ll know why, they “breathe” with wind and traffic, if built solid they would give under the stress and crumble then fall…….. as I said, for those that didn’t know
Remember walking across the Brooklyn bridge with a few friends when one of my friends chain popped, slipped down the crack and we we looked down and see where it went straight into the water a crazy site 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
one day I decided to walk the golden gate bridge. well as God truth I couldn't wait to get to the end. not because I was tired but because of all the ghosts that crowded me and made me feel so sad and anxious inside. there are so so so many forlorne spirits there. if you are sensitive to energies walk the bridge and be alone when you do. you'll see what I mean.😔
As we step into this brand new year, I just want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Your love support streams, shares comments, and messages mean more to me than words can explain. Every song I make carries a piece of my soul, and knowing that you listen, feel, and connect with my music is the biggest blessing of my life❤️❤️🎸 This new year I promise to work harder, dream bigger, and create music that speaks to your hearts. May this year bring you happiness peace, good health, and success in everything you do. Let’s make more memories together through music❤️🎸🎸💜💙
good Lord people, drainage maybe
no one told you to look through the drainage hole.
Drainage, expansion holes for stress relief. Check physics 101
Water drainage that's all it's for Calm down nothing to panic about those are man-made holes . No gophers on the bridge I promise you that.😂😂😂😂
the coldest winter I ever experienced was summertime in San Francisco
weep. holes. for. water
so when it rains the water doesn't pool it drains out the holes
People I live in a that state that get cold . during the winter the bridges always freeze up . because of the air that blows over it and under it that cold air freezes 🥶 up all that moisture on the bridge faster that on 😲the ground. So yes it true that bridge in San Francisco can ice up at times when it's below ( 32 ) degrees anytime it gets to 32 degrees and lower that is the point everything start to freeze up .
no worries just for water run off
it's used to throw your Pennies and make a wish!
water drain
Years ago I climbed down to it and then on it. Meaning underneath it, like the workers do. Not surprisingly, I found it rather scary
hold a fishing linejust come back later to check
Expansion joint Dumbbell
Me too.......🥴.......😀
🌸
for drainage
core samples
so you can drop a fishing line where the big fish is at
When I was younger, I had a sister who was identified as schizophrenic. She had escaped from a hospital and went and tried to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. Police caught her just as she had climbed to the most accessible spot to jump. She said God told her to do it. Scary times.
Really???? They are for Drainage!!!
He’s looking at what’s below, which are self tightening joints for the cable system. It’s on all suspension bridges.
dont look at it 😁
water drainage
That's kind of a dumb question everybody knows what's in holes are for... just saying
the holes are probably for when it rains so the bridge doesn't flood??
u would be glad u got em if its raining
it will freak you out until you die 😁😁😁
yeah that would freak me out too
for water to run off
to drain water
drainage
it's draining holes on the bridge so that there is no icy patches on it that is why so that the water 💦 can drain away from it duh
it could be some place for water to drain to
Every bridge has drain holes lmao
inspection port to check the steel girders?
rain and wind. weather and the wind have alot to do with anything we build. cars, houses. for instance , they changed the way houses were built in the 1970's. it used to be windows were across from each other from one side to the other. they quit doing that because lightning can go in one window out the other, and killed people in it's way. I had one miss me by less than an inch. And another, almost hit one of my sisters, lucky she was little. so ,wind and water
OP, why? what was supposed to be down there?
😳They Dropped Gold Coins And Holy Water In It After They Found Out There Was Fentanyl in The River Tat People Threw Over The Bridge That Was Killing All The Fish And Some People Ate The Fish And Died
To let rain water through so it don’t flood…. And to let air pass through so it don’t twist and turn in wind storms
how can a hole freak someone out? the dude is probably scared of his own shadow
😂😂😂it's a drain why do gutters have holes in them aswell😂😂😂😂 to drain the water
Jesus. Really, people? Some of us couldn't puzzle that one out?
it's the fundamentals of construction
let the water 💧 roll out of course
