The first Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington crossed over a strait in Puget Sound. At the time the suspension bridge was built, construction workers noticed that it moved up and down in the wind.

Determine which technological design criteria the Tacoma Narrows Bridge did and did not meet. Explain your answer.
