Totally no. Structural engineers also have to consider real life constraints, including cost. We are talking about working with existing structures, it's too late for geological surveys.
- tremon 2y agoThat totally depends on the surrounding configuration. If land subsidence was as common as security patches, they would totally be doing monthly surveys. Structural engineers also don't commonly change structural features after initial delivery; realistically, I would expect changing a two-lane bridge to a four-lane bridge to be more expensive than constructing a four-lane bridge where none exists.
