The walkway was thus nearer to ground level than in a standard design where the walkway is placed on top of the structural support system. [16] This reduced the number of steps to climb. The bridge was a post-tensioned concrete structure. [16] Concrete structures are generally ten times heavier than equivalent steel designs. [23]
Collapsed barn at Hörsne, Gotland, Sweden Building collapse due to snow weight. Structural integrity and failure is an aspect of engineering that deals with the ability of a structure to support a designed structural load (weight, force, etc.) without breaking and includes the study of past structural failures in order to prevent failures in future designs.
This is a list of structural failures and collapses of buildings and other structures including bridges, dams, and radio masts/towers. This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness.
