Slightly off the topic, Lady Heron, but I wanted to let people know about the collapse of a pedestrian bridge at Florida International University. Thread is noted at beginning of my post. Fox Biz News was also covering it.

Brought to mind the question we are recently having about quality of All Things Steel.

Prayers up for injured and any other casualties.

I’ve been listening to the reports too. First thing I wondered about was the quality of the steel too.

Someone on 8 Chan also brought up the Q posts on bridges but I doubt very seriously this is what the message was about.

First thought: inferior steel imported from Asia.

Second thought: deep state sabotage.

Praying now.

Thanks for the ping.

Only steel in this bridge was the rebar. No center support on a span over 100’. They just installed it on Saturday.
Inmho the south column failed and it pancaked.
