Poor design. *It cantilevers out too far and the supports are
substandard. *That canopy should have held up much better than that -
the trailer was barely damaged. *Fortunately, no one else was under it
at the time.

it just wasn't designed for side impact. It was designed to resist
other forces, mainly in that configuration wind.

Well, then.. It was designed without much foresight. Do you think the
result would have been different if the guy hit the post.. And who
would design something like that to sit in a parking lot and not
assume it might get bumped by a moving vehicle.. idiots, engineers,
useless * Should have been designed by a technition...- Hide quoted text -

C'mon loog, that was just a stupid design. BTW, email me and the Mouse

You'd be surprised how constrained design is by price. It's so
competitive that now days you just about have to do complete
construction documents for the estimators to price with. And that
sucks if the job gets out bid by someone.
