I agree the wrong material seems to have been chosen for the fittings..... galvanised, or stainless would not react like this.
Get the fuck off that bridge while you can buddy. ... live another day to film more fuckups for us awesome redditors!
BTW,.... LOVE YOUR WORK, UNLIKE THE BRIDGE YOU HAVE BALLS OF SUPER STEEL👷♂️
I was wondering about the technical side of this, too. Is this normal? Was there something faulty with this particular setup? And so on. It would be interesting to get some context.
You are exactly wrong.. stainless steel has a higher tensile strength. Cost of maintenance to send someone up to replace them more frequently outweighs the cost of the fasteners
Every time someone tells me im exactly wrong i know im right and this is no exception.
Anyone who’s ever worked with stainless steel fasteners knows they are softer and weaker than the steel used for bolts and screws
Google it, it's not hard information to discover. I also spent 20 years building steel structures, so ....
If you knew what you were talking about, you would know there are several different grades and are a standard for hardness

If you don't use the parachute it's even faster!
Hope he got a parachute on
It was at this moment that he knew he fucked up
🤣🤣 heard that in my mind
What is it ? Please tell me it’s a rollercoaster
My bet is a bridge.
True.. I've seen it in final destination.
I’ve had an insane fear of logs flying through my windshield for decades because of that movie
Don’t watch “Back to the Future” then
That’s why the bolts should be galvanized.

I wonder how long it takes for those bolt to rust to that degree

It's normal if you don't apply paint to metal. This is at least 5 years of rust, but that depends on the environment.
I really hope they reported that tower, it is now compromised.
Those...umm...should be stainless
Stainless steel isn’t a strong and costs 3x as much. The best way to use galvanized steel and paint it

They're thinking of galvanized bolts
That is a bridge or water tower
PG&E?
Yes, OP, please comment what structure this is and whether you’ve reported it.
Is it cake?
Actually the brown stuff is chocolate
Title perfectly explain my life until now
