Earlier in 2008 it seemed as is NYc (U.S.) had a rash of building crane accidents some caused by negligence others by the lack of quality inspections [not the people but their attention to detail). So i posted on foxblogs and two other websites (think those are down) this idea of a passive vertical break-shoe. The idea i think one can get from this linked image (below or click here)hosted at TWANGO now OVI. (Originally posted march 2008 at foxblogs / OVi.) The text in the image on line 8 should read STRONG instead of STRING, to mean if on built something to literally / constantly hold the braces as let y steel cables then if they (cables) failed again that object be it steel cables would have to be changed due to wear and tear as it is passive / aggressive* in design the braces are passive / passive*.
(BTW if you desire to view the images at OVI in a nicely presented style with a "clean" interface wait till the lower left corner blue arrow is visible when hovering over an image.)
==============asterisk explained=================
*passive / aggressive to mean the cables are not in action till a brace breaks then the steel cables become aggressive as one hopes that those steel cables can take the weight of the braces in an active manner as to hold thus transfer the energy to the cables and its rivets.
The passive / passive vertical breaks are placed under each brace and any sudden loosening of a brace causes the brace to slide down a bit transferring any energy / heat to the entire crane thus passive as the steel cables when not in action but passive unlike the steel cable when IN ACTION as the falling braces energy transferred throughout the entire crane as if the crane became a heat-sink for the falling brace.
Again more on foxblogs and other worldwide websites (the foxblog post might have been deleted when fox upgraded as several of my looong post where due to their length. Mow besides my blogs being purposely written in a hard to read manner another unkonwn to me problem was that i never knew my style of "html formatting" was not correctly presented on foxblogs as a browser i used showed me my version of what i uploaded NOT foxblog's presentation till i saw it on another persons compu'r in spring of 2008 thus i began to simul-blog / post here at LJ so one can see my blogbits in correct format as that is "important" to clues i leave.
This idea i also phoned in to the original builder of the twin towers a few days after 911 so these types of braces can be built into buildings infrastructure thus floors collapsing can be either stopped or its energies dissipated thus floors do not continue to fall onto another floor accumulating the downward fall weight / stress. This idea for floors i also included / uploaded to a web site ( but not sure if it was accepted) with a poem to the Hobbs family. The poem was a thank you for allowing me to share in the wealth of their family's love in their kindness as to how they treated others including myself and was to an angel named Tara that i as privileged / blesed enough to meet during my college years.
,peace
