Bridge collapse in Miami

Terrible ... whatever the cause is.

Just heard that it was designed to withstand a Cat 5 hurricane and last
for at least 100 years. It was pre-stressed to handle enormous loads.

It lasted one day. Engineering screw up? Construction screw up?

7 people are dead ... more injured.
