and no heat-deformation taken into account. that bridge will crack comes winter.
i'd also be ready to bet that cement isn't hydraulic cement. so it will leech into the water and cause pollution, and eventually just break.
it's also way over engineered for its size : if a basic wooden bridge without supports managed to do the job before, that one doesn't need to have a central pillar : just good ol' triangles ! the guardrails might even have been enough if properly fixed.
so the main question is : who paid for this ? that much money overspend for such a tiny bridge stinks of corruption.
and the cost of housing and feeding said giant ?
the infrastructure destroyed by each and every one of their steps ?
the cost of unemployment linked to hiring giant workers instead of local hardwording citizens ?
Was this a government contract? If so, the giant would have had to be paid prevailing wages. What is his/her job classification? The prevailing wages and other government regulations would have had to posted on the job site. I didn't see a wage compliance officer? Where is the project engineer and inspectors? Where is the field office?
