@amazeifystore: One tiny change cost 114 lives. 🏗️ The Hyatt Regency walkway collapse is a haunting lesson in structural engineering. By splitting one continuous rod into two for easier fabrication, the load path was completely rerouted. Suddenly, a single nut was carrying double the weight it was designed for. It is like holding a heavy weight in your hand, then having someone hang a second weight directly off your wrist. The steel simply couldn't take the stress. How often do we trade structural integrity for easier construction? Let's discuss below. 👇 #engineering #civilengineering #architecture #structuralengineering #physics #hyattregency #construction #safetyfirst #designfailure #stem #engineeringfails #History #building
