Comparison of Arch and Beam. The advantages»f arch bridges have already been described in-^art I of this bools, and original formulae have3een given from which the approximate cost ofioncrete bridges may be determined. One of thediief merits of arch bridges is that when properlylesigned, they may be made beautiful in outline. Some of the advantages of beam bridges are asollows:—(1) It is possible in a beam bridge tooeate the grade of the bridge floor much lower andlearer to the high water level or other clearanceine than can be done when an arch is used; (2)oundations for beam bridges may be built on soilhat is more or less yielding, which cannot be doneivitli arch bridges, unless hinges are used at the^enter and spring. The lateral thrust of arches on>oft foundations is liable to cause serious injury to:he structure, Avhile the corresponding amount ofsettlement under the abut
