Cost cutting here and there, jobs done too quickly, makeshift patches ect seems to be the order of the day now and all reasons for a possible disaster.Re: Terrible bridge collapse -Italy
Apparently this was an unusual engineering design. Two other bridges in Italy have the same design and were found to have faults. Concerns had been expressed by italian engineers that the design was unstable. They are saying it is down to maintenance but it seems it's down to warnings falling on deaf ears. Seems it was only a matter of time before something like this happened. If you are told by experts that something is unstable surely you should close it, but sometimes people are optimists and prefer to ignore warnings....Thread Tools | |
