Apparently the bridge was undergoing a stress test when it fell. It got an A-.
How you come up with A-?

Idk what to tell ya, that's not the same design as the footbridges (geez, I forgot about those) over I-95 and Okeechobee road.
Could be a design flaw. Could be substandard materials, idk about illegals building it, but that's a possibility as well.
A guy I worked for a long time ago picked up an illegal to work for the day.
The guy set an aluminum ladder on a power line. I was yelling as loud as I could, and still he did it.
I don't hire illegals, period.
Yelling English very loud doesn't work if they don't speak the language!
"No" is the same in Spanish as English![]()
I'm in the concrete construction business. An A- is the same thing as an F. People die.Apparently the bridge was undergoing a stress test when it fell. It got an A-.

Is it possible for persons who are illegally in the U.S. to work on government projects?
What do you mean? No union card? That can be a big problem.
After whining about people using the Parkland tragedy for political purposes, the alt-right jumps right in to bash 'illegals', with absolutely zero evidence.
One thing Mexicans are good at is concrete structures. Look to the engineers.

The company has done many projects with the county for years.Surely they will investigate the firm who won the bid and all the contractors in the chain.

We avoided a calamity of cankling catastrophes by not electing that girl (as Bill Clinton called her).
Federal monies? Most likely not! State and local monies? Most likely YES. Bet that at least some part of Florida contracts utilize the CHEAPEST labor they can find!!!!!
This is incredible. Either some engineers fucked up their calculations or some materials were defective, or possibly the reinforcing steel was not properly connected. The legal stuff will be going on for a decade. Many different people and entitles will be sued, and collect. And remember, a PROFESSIONAL cannot hide his/her liability through a corporate shell. The architect and PE's who signed off on these drawings are in big trouble, personally and professionally.
Looked like a pretty cool bridge. Pity.
Pathetic. Deflect, deflect, deflect. Hillary will be fine. Trump will NOT.Pantsuit ApocalypseAny word the Hildebeast was strolling across it when it collapsed?

Let's hope so. In the meantime, no more of that "innovative" building, huh?This is incredible.

Don't forget the fed and state inspectors. This will be long but hopefully conclusive as to determining cause.
