What Causes Bridge Damage?


There are an abundance of factors which are likely to cause damage to bridges, both in regards to human and natural causes.

Firstly, many bridges suffer damage merely due to natural wear and tear which occurs over time.

Other natural causes which are a source of damage include weather conditions such as floods, severe winds, falling trees, fires, earthquakes and much more.

On the other hand, according to the American Society of Civil Engineering, human related causes include aspects such as construction flaws, infrastructure issues, manufacturing errors, accidents from vehicles, boats or planes and the like.

Many times, bridges sustain damage not only from one of these occurrences, but from many occurring simultaneously.

Either way, bridge damage is a normal and expected occurrence and is likely to happen to all bridges over time.
