Abstract
The tests reported in this paper were made on wire specimens cut from the cables and on chord specimens cut from the stiffening trusses of the Brooklyn Bridge. As stated in the other papers of this Symposium, this historic structure was opened to traffic in 1883; and, consequently, the test specimens have been in service for at least 60 years.
