What is the difference between compression and tension and how does it affect your bridge?

Compression is pushing things together and tension is pulling things apart. A clothesline is under tension and a stack of firewood is under compression.
How it affects the bridge depends on how well it is engineered. Properly built it'll hold up to its various loads w/o problems,

What forces affect bridges?
Torsion, compression, and tension
What forces can affect a structure?
wind, weight, compression, tension and push
What are the internal forces that affect pyramids?
Compression,the tiles compress together.
How does entropy affect compression rate?
General compression techniques look for repeated patterns which can be compressed to a single iteration of the pattern. A data stream with high entropy will have relatively few repeated patterns, and will decrease the compression ratio.
Will dishwashing liquid affect viscosity?
Viscosity of a fluid is mainly influenced by the friction caused by the interactions between its molecules. Therefore a dishwashing liquid or reagent does not affect the viscosity of water, it only affect its surface tension. .

How does the difference between the character's spoken words and internal thoughts affect the story?
It creates dramatic tension.
What forces act on the Tower Bridge of London?
First of all, the force of compression impacts the bridge. Also, the force of tension inmpacts the bridge because the more cars there are or any weight the bridge stretches which is tension. tthe force of gravity weighs the bridge down and that is why the bridge has to withstand that. Wind can affect the tower bridge because if there is a huriccane the bridge has to be able to stand without any damage.
Can low compression affect timing?
No. Low compression does not effect timing but timing can affect compression.
How does stress affect earth's crust?
Shearing, tension, and compression work over millions of years to change the shape and volume of rock. Those are types of stress.
