SR 520 Floating Bridge - Simulated failure by earthquake

i can watch that from my apartment when i happens

what programme is that#

I'm assuming the west approach is not the floating part of the bridge. What about building cross braces on the columns? Or make the approach float as well. If the entire thing is floating then only the points where the bridge connects to the land would be at risk.

boats have to be able to pass the bridge on a regular basis.

What I was suggesting would be bracing on each set of columns, not bracing between them. I'm sure that most boat, especially larger ones, go through the west high-rise. We have one bridge here that is a hybrid of a suspension bridge with the tower based on land and everything over the water is floating. You can look up Nordhordaland Bridge.. there is a small article in Wiki and some photos on Google.

Lol,
Of course it woulden't be fun,A bridge collapsing and falling to your watery grave :D

This is a good thing teaching us how to improve structures to make them more not vunreble to earthquakes

hey personal message me and please tell what program that was

what on earth are you talking about?
