    You'd think that the word "professional" would mean the utmost pertaining to projects like this

    I had my 13 year old daughter watch this, and even she saw that the corners of the notches would be a weak point. BTW, she's not a structural engineer, she's a 13 year old girl, with two eyes, a brain, and common sense.

    Watching video after video of these human error disasters I'm not looking forward to the bypass I heard was to be built in Castroville, TX.

    An independent study of a bridge design should be done before construction begins. When "innovative" elements are used in the design, someone should ask if tried-and-true systems would work as well or better. And as we've seen in some recent high-rise buildings, the foundations are crucial and should not be subject to cost-cutting.

    What they left out was that the independent study was commissioned because the engineering firm in charge of design had another bridge collapse during its construction. Investigation showed there were pretty obvious signs the bridge was about to fail due to its design and the engineers and construction company just ignored them and pushed on, which meant there was traffic on the road under the bridge and construction workers on top of the bridge when it fell down. Several people were injured or died. The engineers lost their licenses and all the projects they were a part of had to be re-examined. Search for 'FIU Bridge Collapse' if you want to learn more - Brick Immortar's video about it is good.

    didnt follow directions and kept the bridge in transport mode. then going against their word, and used materials like concrete in a forrest... should have used recycled long boards or real wood... and dont build bridges to no where!!

    In New Orleans cowboy construction with a breath-taking lack of oversight. Tofu building at its best, the dollar rules.

    It looks really bad for a trade or tech school to design and install, engineering fails.. Basically.. If that tech school represents U.S. infrastructure.. I know now why we are.. "Done"

    Fortunately Wake Technical Community College doesn't represent US infrastructure engineering. Seriously, a moron could see that design flaw. All they had to do was engineer steel carriers for the notched ends.

    Things last 1000 years and then engineers showed up along with corruption. It was better when they over engineered buildings not right at the limits of failure.
