  I find this wording below confusing. By single do you mean wrapped 
bi-chords

    I'm adding some single strings (6) to the lower part of the tenor section 
of a piano             to smooth out the scaling.>>>>>
       If so I wouldn't be all that cocerned. The extra mass and tension of 
the wrapped strings is what's moving the bridge. 
  The bearing is minimal at the bottom of the tenor bridge and the singles 
with their
