How do they know the load limit on bridges? (And please don’t tell me that they put heavier and heavier trucks on the bridge until it falls and build it back up again) This question has been plaguing me ever since I read it.
Oops…I posted this question once too many times… I hd no idea refresh would do that -_-"
Part of the engineering that goes into building a bridge involves a calculation, based on the materials and the structural elements, of the load limit. I believe that physics simulations can also be done, especially for important bridges.
Since this is a duplicate, I’m closing this and directing posters to reply to How do they know the load limit on bridges?
