Construction on the Puente Colgante suspension bridge across the Pasig River started in 1849 and was completed in 1852 and lasted to the early 1930s. With photographic evidence I believe that the original bridge was of wood and hemp rope construction. That the bridge was originally of steel construction may be a mistaken belief carried on from one person to the next. I have been looking into Suspension Bridge history and find that in the 1800s many suspension bridges were constructed of hemp ropes with a deck of cedar planks. And some were updated to steel beams and steel cable later on with the bridge in place by replacing the ageing wood and hemp with steel. If you go to the original large size pictures it is evident that it is wooden beams that are supporting the deck of the bridge. The one 1900-1902 picture clearly shows many steel beams stacked next to the bridge that very possibly could be the replacement for the ageing wood. In the pictures that shows the suspension lines up closer they definitely look like twisted hemp rope and look nothing like steel cable I have ever seen. I have been a USA certified crane operator in my life and do know steel cables. In the 18th going into the 20th Century the Philippines produced the world best hemp rope. The Hemp rope could have easily been replaced by steel cable, possibly by the updating the Americans were doing in Manila around the turn of the century. Does anyone know a source for an accurate complete history of this bridge? The above is my educated conjecture. And please prove me wrong if I am. To me there is nothing worse than tainted history.
