I don't have any. This just happened. I was speculating obviously but given how many tragedies they've been involved in lately I'd say it's an educated guess. ;)

Considering ground structures like that are designed with a structural margin of safety of at least 2:1, I'd say it was either defective material

I read that deliberately faulty steel has been a concern in the marketplace of late.

Back at ya! Keep watching CNN and clucking with all the other cucks.  ::) ;D

Lame! I don't watch CNN.  Haven't since the early 90's.  Or any other news network for that matter.  You know that too. Bring your A game.  Oh and James Earl Jones is a Republican.

I knew it wouldn't take long for one of our resident antisemitic posters to show up and spout more bullshit.  You need to see a therapist.
Eugene Figg Company, sounds jewish to me, but actually I was just joking, bro. The bridge was build by a Jewish company together with a company from Panama. Of course it collapsed. As for antisemitism, that is a term used by people who can't handle the truth or by Jews who don't like what you say, especially if it's true.

Apparently, you don't watch or read anything because you're one of the most uninformed posters on here. You've become almost a totally reactionary faggot. Congrats!

LOL.  I don't have nothing on you when it comes to reactionary faggotry. I read Drudge and that is about it.  I stay away from paranoiacs like Alex Jones.  I've got other things to do now besides sit on my pc and type.

Funny, AJ is a big fan of Drudge and Drudge usually has links to Infowars. ::)

It's also weird how Drudge has been on AJ's show:

AJ hosted coast to coast way back. I’m sure that’s common knowledge here but I just heard it mentioned listening to another old C2C and was like, woh.

Art disliked Jones intensely and called him a wingnut.

Drudge does like audacious stories and Infowars fills the bill.  I check out those stories but with extreme prejudice.  I don't agree with Drudge all the time when it comes to the news stories he links to but he is better than the alternatives.

Art is a great judge of character and people in general
"George gets it" is only the beginning, or maybe the end.
I remember Art was also a fan ob Obamas for some reason, or maybe he just had "white guilt" or something.

Alex Jones is the greatest meme machine ever born

There was a nice amount of mutual hatred, jealousy, and insults between Bill, Art, and Alex.

Well, if you listen to the interview you can hear what a big fan he is of Alex. You won't bother though. Why risk learning something new?! ;D

A 21st Century Man does not need to make up his own mind when he can simply look to greater men than he, like Art or Drudge, and parrot their opinions.
Personally I would advise against basing my political opinions on a homosexual Jews' lazy news congregation site. I mean being homosexual isn't exactly a very healthy lifestyle after all, and a great many of them are also pederasts and walking biohazards.

What does Jew have to do with it?

Straight men are more likely to be child abusers:

 http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/west-miami-dade/article204506084.html says the bridge was to be completed in 2019?  Typo?

Like what?

Quote from: Juan on March 15, 2018, 02:08:23 PM
WPLG in Miami says the bridge was undergoing stress tests at the time of the collapse. Stress tests at noon with cars beneath it.
Odd to test it while having traffic under it.  Like testing a condom with a hole in it.

Quote from: Uncle Duke on March 15, 2018, 03:15:00 PM
So it was still under construction.  The BBC article Pye posted initially didn't make that clear, the article made it sound like it was completed and operational.  Do you think they would put non-load bearing cables on the bridge for aesthetics?  Seems like a waste of money.
I think that's why it looked like.  Sneaky.

Someone had to have known.  Bridges are very carefully designed.  I don't feel sorry for them.

That's pretty cold, Slowjo.  :(

We clearly need a bridge ban. They kill and injure large numbers of people. The 35W in Minneapolis, I-85 in Atlanta, theI-5/Skagit River in Washington, Hopple Street Overpass in Cincinnati, the overpass in Golden Colorado,  the I-40 bridge in Webber’s Falls, Oklahoma, San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and the I-5 collapse both in California.
We are clearly under a murderous assault by bridges. It’s time for a ban.

Perhaps they were redundant supports, part of making it hurricane resistant? I really don't know anything about this design. More than likely we won't know the exact cause of the failure for awhile until university researchers and top tier structural engineering firms forensically analyze the structure and isolate the failure point.

QuoteThat stress testing typically involves placing carefully calibrated weights on the span and measuring how the structure responds to ensure it’s within safe parameters, Aref said. Crews may also have been adjusting tension cables that provide structural strength for the span’s concrete slabs.

That makes a lot of sense to me for a failure point. But we'll see.

If it was a failure due to imported steel, things will get interesting in a hurry.

Meh, that Miami Herald article article pointed out that it was an almost entirely concrete structure, and weighed 10x as much as steel would have.

I read your linked articles. Turns out as expected - it's a load of talmudic gibberish by Prof Herek who seems to have spent his entire career on trying to normalize degenerate behavior of Homosexuals and Pedos. And on top it doesn't even say what you claim "Straight men more likely to be child abusers", instead it concludes "The empirical research does not show that gay or bisexual men are any more likely than heterosexual men to molest children." - which of course is more liberal/jewish smoke and mirrors nonsense as the usual shtick of the homosexuals is not to abuse random kids but to psychologically manipulate kids and teens into becoming "consenting" minors for their gay buttsex fetish.

Unfortunately Psychology stopped being a science ever since the conman Siegmund Freud and the Frankfurt School of Jews changed it into scam to get rich off their patients and give them permission to engage in all kinds of degenerate behavior.
Modern "Psychology" is a Pseudoscience.

QuotePsychiatry is arguably the least science-based of all the medical specialties, and Freudian psychoanalysis is arguably the least science-based psychotherapy. Freud’s theories have been widely criticized as unscientific, and treatment of mental disorders has increasingly turned to psychotropic medications and effective therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Freud’s impact on 20th century thought is undeniable, but he got almost everything wrong. He was not only not scientific; he was a liar and a fraud. A new book, Freud: The Making of an Illusion, by Frederick Crews, may put the final nail in his coffin.

And I don't even want to waste my time going into you linking to the shitlib/degenerate rag HuffPo.

Anyone who truly wants to learn what Homosexuals are up to and what motivates them, watch this discussion with Dr. E Michael Jones. He nails it perfectly.

My college roommate for a couple years was a CE, I remember him taking a concrete course and a lab.  Always struck me funny hearing he and his lab partners debating sand and gravel content of some sample that failured during testing.

A couple pictures of the collapsed bridge I've seen seem to show to a 45° fracture, indicating it failed in shear?  I would assume this bridge had expansion joints?

Absolutely.  It's a travesty that's been going on for decades.

Time to march.  Just not over any bridges.
