Yup, on that day alone fires felled steel buildings, just as the design of the bridge failed only on this day.
"Replacement bridge opens in Minneapolis; Collapse in 'o7 left 13 dead, 145 injured" by Steve Karnowski, Associated Press | September 19, 2008
MINNEAPOLIS - The National Transportation Safety Board has not yet issued its final determination of what caused the old bridge to collapse, but officials have been focusing on an error in the original design and the weight of construction materials that were on the bridge for a resurfacing project when it fell.
Unlike the old bridge, the new bridge is built with redundant systems so that if one part fails it won't collapse. And it contains 323 sensors that collect data on how it handles the stresses of heavy traffic and Minnesota's harsh climate. The data will help engineers maintain the bridge and advance the art of bridge design.
If that were all true, wouldn't bridges be collapsing all across America?
Or are they and the MSM isn't telling us?
