When shortcuts meet concrete, gravity always wins. Tragic and telling.

Looks like somebody took a shortcut during the geological survey. Or Tofu-dreg.

People praise China’s ability to expand at a dizzying rate, and it is impressive to an extent, but not at the cost of a quality job.

ah I see…. reports are saying it collapsed from slope deformation, and they had detected the failure and evacuated the area/road.
So that sort of makes sense. Bad planning on the slope.

The Hongqi Bridge at the Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station in Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, collapsed. Local authorities responded that traffic control measures were implemented after cracks were discovered the previous day, and there were no casualties.

At least the guy that put the flag pole in did his job right.

Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident.

I was told when studying Engineering Geology in University that you pay for the study if hou do it or if you don’t. I think this proves the case.

I’m no bridge expert but I suspect it isn’t supposed to do that.

Interestingly, it’s not really “*the bridge*” that collapsed, but the road on the hillside connecting to the bridge. That landslide, in turn, took out part of the bridge. I’d say that, when faced with a catastrophic landslide event, most of the bridge held on, says the *bridge* wasn’t the problem.

tbf I think that’s less of a bridge collapse issue and more a side of a mountain deciding to slide off and take everything else with it problem.
