Examining bridge collapses / by Myles Barry.
"Did you know there are more than 600,000 bridges in the United States? If not properly taken care of these structures can collapse from too much pressure or from a natural disaster. Thirteen people died and more than 100 people were injured after the I-35W Bridge in Minnesota collapsed in 2007. In this book you'll examine bridge collapses and explore what they are, how they happen, and how to prevent them from happening in the future"--Back cover.
