Guy Goodbody posted:I'm not an expert on bridge costs, but is that really a 12 million dollar bridge? Yeah, looking at scale based on the people that's a reasonable cost for a durable and functional steel rebar reinforced concrete bridge of that size intended to last 40 to 80 years. Except they hosed it up to all holy hell and I'm still trying to work backward to wrap my head around how they hosed it up so bad and where everything started to go wrong other than the very beginning of everything.

feels like a looming certainty that trump will mishandle the korean missile crisis and millions will die only question in my mind is if the death and misery caused by bush's iraq war will get eclipsed by the time trump leaves office

I've talked with chinese P.S.'s and P.E.'s in Vegas at conferences. In urban areas they are meticulous and have extreme attention to detail. In rural areas nobody gives a gently caress and they unreliably follow suit. Never take the lowest bid when a chinese company is in the mix. Or never take bids from chinese companies in foreign countries without giving them heightened scrutiny (which is deserved).

Happens a lot with Chinese investment in Africa. Grifters both from the Chinese side and the locals. A lot of that money never went into the bridge.

Also the Chinese don't care about robbing foreigners. I'm sure the British built some lovely bridges over in Africa, y'know.

The longer I stare at that CNN pic the angrier I get. People spent time and effort to create that bridge, but one or more(but probably one) dumb idiot hosed everything up. Everybody is going to focus on the fallen middle piece, but that fell and remained intact. That was very likely built 100% to spec. I am maddened with righteous rage at a public works project.

Is it even salvageable at this point? Is there some manner of heroic ducktaping that could make it reasonably usable and safe for a period or is it one of those things you have to scrap to the bedrock and start over?
