The collapse of the bridge raises questions about how much engineers can do to prevent such events from occurring in the future.

Based on that guide specification, bridge design codes were changed to include forces due to ship collisions. The design of the Francis Scott Key Bridge would not have been required to consider ...

The loss of Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge after a cargo ship collision will teach engineers how to design structures better able to withstand disasters ...

How hard is it to design a bridge to withstand the force that took down the Francis Scott Key Bridge? Once engineers understand the forces that a structure will be subjected to, they can design a ...

Based on the weight and speed of the ship that hit the Francis Scott Key Bridge, today’s U.S. bridge design code would call for the bridge to be designed to resist a lateral force of 11,500 tons.

Middlebrook said the design of the Gordie Howe Bridge was chosen for its look of "contemporary minimalism," evoking a sense of openness, lightness, clean lines and good proportions.

BALTIMORE — Maryland Gov. Wes Moore unveiled a new design concept to rebuild Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge after it collapsed last year. Moore made the announcement Tuesday at at ...
