Here is what happens when people think steel is indestructible then decide to forgo engineering based on that premise, and then you get a bigger snow load then you ever thought possible.
Presto, I-beams bent like wet noodles and a bridge that looks like it was designed by Salvador Dali.
A buddy of mine and I had the job of taking this apart in 1999 so the steel could be flown out. Pretty exciting work over an 80 foot deep slot canyon.
