Our infrastructure is a total disaster. But at least we are getting our pronouns right.

How is it that there’s so much stress on that beam that it cracks it clean through, but then it doesn’t move an inch after breaking?
Any structural engineers weigh in? Vibration and a flawed beam are all I got. The fact that it’s next to a bracket that likely doesn’t flex might mean vibration?

BREAKING NEWS: These are photos of the crack found in the Hernando de Soto I-40 Bridge. Now we understand why they said it could have led to a ‘catastrophic event.’

I like how they just slapped some flat lego pieces on the bridge.

Just throw some JB weld on that and call it a day.

Two thousand rivets
Only four of them actually holding the pieces together
None of them where the bridge broke
Someone dig up the paperwork
It said $5000 per rivet you put in this bridge

That's no crack! That thing is completely severed in two.

With major crack being found, Joe will send Hunter to investigate further.

Scary thing is that’s not new. The exposed metal along the fracture is rusted.

The inspector maybe didn't want to be bothered...

But it becomes a major news story right in front of the massive "infrastructure" bill.
Curious timing for sure.

To think I just went over this bridge a couple months ago, gives me chills.
