Here is an interesting summary of the fact known about the bridge failure of 03/30/2018: <a href="http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/west-miami-dade/article207358659.html">http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/west-miami-dade/article207358659.html</a> They state that external structural engineers have offered explanations in engineering forums but acknowledge that the lack of knowledge final structural drawings and analysis still makes them speculations. Regards, Volker Edit: While browsing through the enginering forum linked in the above article I found the following super slow motion version of a dash-cam video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6pGzgm4zZ4&feature=youtu.be">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6pGzgm4zZ4&feature=youtu.be</a> For me it looks like the support diagonal failed at the joint with the top chord leaving all load carrying to the bottom chord which failed in bending fracture. Still only a description and no reasoning.
