why do you need to worry? You live where there is more smog and less bridges.

I just have to say this cuz i read it 10 times and it still bothers me.

it is an "I" beam not an eye beam though it is more shaped like an "H". it is called an "I" beam becuase of its shape.

not trying to sound like an ***, i am just edumacating.

not according to the mercury news...

"The Bay Bridge will be closed at least 24 hours after several pieces of steel used during an emergency repair of a cracked eyebar over Labor Day weekend fell onto the upper deck of the bridge, hitting three cars and injuring one person, Caltrans and CHP officials said tonight. "

That depends on if they're union workers or not. If they are, then I agree with Monday. If they're not, then more than likely 24-36 hours.

And if it's non-union labor, they'll do the job right, instead of half-a$$. It won't fall apart.
