(Engineering by Catastrophe: Season 1: Bridging the Divide) Engineering Across the globe, engineers are creating extraordinary modern masterpieces, structures that push beyond the limits of what came before. Each year, innovations grow more impressive as bridges, tunnels, skyscrapers and even spacecraft become bigger, bolder and more ambitious. Yet, every breakthrough brings new risks. To ensure the safest outcomes, engineers must study worst-case scenarios in which major structures are pushed to their limits and fatal flaws are exposed. Fires, explosions, floods and catastrophic collisions are difficult to confront but essential to understand. In this six-part series, we learn from the past to build a safer future. When the Morandi Bridge collapsed in Genova in 2018, it was more than a national tragedy. Its failure was a reckoning for engineers everywhere and a sobering reminder that every structure has a lifespan. In a world of increasing populations, changing traffic volumes and extreme weather events, how can we safeguard new bridges? Engineers for Genova’s new bridge met the challenge, focusing on intelligent safety and advanced robotics. As Turkey builds the longest suspension bridge in the world, engineers push the limits with clever innovations, delivering a modern marvel that withstands wild winds, catastrophic ship collisions and Earth’s seismic fury.
