Who designed the Golden Gate Bridge?

Why does Joseph B. Strauss (1870- 1938), the designer of the Golden Gate Bridge, stand out from many competitors? Except that Strauss himself is a famous designer; At that time, he also participated in a plan to cross the Bering Strait Bridge. In addition, the source of funds for bridge construction at that time needed to borrow from Bank of America; At that time, the President of Bank of America asked Strauss; ; How long can this bridge last? Strauss said forever, so Strauss broke through many difficulties and won the opportunity to build a bridge. However, Strauss is only a designer after all, and all the technologies and measurements related to public works are completed by his assistant, Charles Aloton Ellis. Strauss is afraid that Ellis, who is increasingly loved by people, will take away his glory; He was fired on the grounds that the funds and time budget were not suitable.
