Why wouldn't they go after the company that owns the ship to pay for the rebuild? They must have liability insurance and resources they can go after. The government can foot the bill up front and the lawyer's can sue for it in the years ahead. You know, hold them accountable.
Nobody has said that the government and multiple others aren't "going after" the ship company. But this work needs to be done and paid for immediately. To go after the company, i.e. to sue them, they have to establish every single detail about what happened, who's responsible, and everyone harmed by the company before they sue them! Suits are won on facts, not guessing what happened and who's responsible.
Te ship ins is liable, not the Federal as Joe said he'd pay.
I live in the San Francisco bay area and in 2007 the Cosco Busan ran into what the Bay Bridge has as 'bumpers' built around the footing of the pillars that absorb impact and prevent, to a degree, this verything.
That crane looks so small compared to that bridge.
Small and old
I agree w/ lewisd re dolphins for pier protection....looks like they had 2 small ones up/downstream but ship angle of attack just missed one. BUT it looked too small to have much affect. Looks at the Sunshine Skyway bridge in Tampa and the 32 large dolphins we installed to protect the spindally/skinny piers which also had rock riprap that would help ship go agrouund before impacting the piers. another bad Figg design that needed alot of help!
Dude that beat over the broken bridge intro was heavy metal! Slayer!
The crane in the picture is not a 1000 Ton crane. Easy google search shows the correct crane.
I think that’s just a support crane
Thank You for your Positive words of Encouragement. This tragic FSK bridge Collapse will severely affect our economy. Prayers & God Bless us All.💜
Other ports along the east coast are already getting re-rerouted ships.
Barriers (dolphins) need to be put in to protect the pillars. It's a wonder why they weren't put in before. All bridges need to be reviewed and evaluated for protection.
They were there. Really hard to stop a 980' cargo ship traveling at 10 knots.
That sure looks like a LIEBHERR LR1300 which is a 330T crawler crane. I do not believe it is the Chesapeake 1000.

Is there no insurance from the ship that caused this destruction?
It will be collected eventually Im sure, but its better to get a new one built as soon as they can, than wait longer. I can only imagine the traffic backups in the detours around it people are taking now
Joe is friends with other countries but hates America and trying to destroy us and it won't be long we will be broken down and starving. China owns half of America now and Bill Gates.
FYI, Maritime Law, is unlike any civil law you may think you know........provides for Multiple liabilities of multiple parties, i.e. the ship, ship operaator, the port, port traffic, bridge design, etc. thats why it will be years probably unless NTSB does it's due diligence asap. Then ship will pay for at least a partial rebuild.
Do we still have a 25% tariff on imported steel?
I don’t know how they can predict how the wreckage of that cantilever truss will move when they start cutting it apart. There’s no way to know what the support conditions are and limited information on the damage to the connections especially those underwater given the visibility conditions.
I know that I would not want to be the guy on the oxy torch or demo lance……… even if I was tied off to a separate crane.
What about all the asbestos used in all the materials
or 50 years they knew this was an accident waiting to happen. It would have cost a few million to protect the bridge...
Well, Nobody expected Joe to become president and him and Obama are destroying America as fast as they can. Just the way they forbid children to enjoy Easter with their Transgender and gay deal.So cruel and needs to go away .Like the China Balloon its all planned out.
Lloyd's of London isn't Brexiting out of this one. Clearly negligence on the ship captain.
What about the bodies.why are they not included in your list?
Is this "engineer" using dial-up internet? 🤔
thats not the Chesapeake.. ffs news companies...
The Golden Gate and Bay Bridges are built with buffers long before that crappy bridge was built
Let’s remember that Baltimore was an economically depressed city in the seventies. The FS Key bridge was an anachronistic design long before Baltimore built it in 1977. That it built such an off the shelf design with so little protection reflects the economic realities of Baltimore in the day
Good comment.
Haven’t seen any footage of bridge being hauled away and only same two guys cutting the same piece.
Re salvage. We had a cofferdam hit by a tow in the MS River, 60' x 260' x 80' deep sheetpiles, 800 tons of c/d/ bracing. It took 355 days to clear all the debris and get us to where we were prior. MS river has 0% visibility. we used a similar stiff-leg derrick as they have in Balt
Can parts be airlifted? Like with helicopters
Will or will it not take years to rebuild the bridge anyone know
Is it true black box was turned off before impact 🤔
No
As a senior engineer there’s a cluster of failures from the cargo ship R&D to worse with bridge designer why the other tower collapsed? It should should withstand such impacts that’s why the mix steel with concrete 🥶
What bridge? The ship's bridge? You did what? Dumbass... 🙄
AH! Robert Ross, the British commander who led the attack there that led to The Star Spangled Banner
being written by Francis Scott Key is here in the Old Burying Ground in Halifax, NS. On Barrington Street.
Interesting. Hello from Digby.
My condolences to the families of the lost. 😢
I highly Doubt it was a Record breaking Fundraiser!!!😂
2:54 Dial up internet all over again!
Should there be limits on the size of these ships?
Don’t blame it for being built in the 70’s . That’s When Things Were Built Better!!!!!!!
Yes, build "it" exactly the same way, all over again! Only this time with more exclamation points!!!!!!!!! Dumbass... 🙄
Unfortunately, this has been done in Tampa Florida before, not the first rodeo (hopefully the last)
😢
Bridge lives matter! Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion!
White Lives Matter
The economy is so bad all the submarine experts are now bridge experts.
I'm an *underwater* bridge expert! I thought you knew... 😁
NOT the Chesapeake 1000, get your facts straight!
www.donjon.com/ches1000.htm
The FKB is 1.6 miles and the golden state bridge is 1.7 just to compare
That crane is one of many that will be in operation.They will need cranes many times bigger .God bless the lost souls...
This such a tragic accident, there , i said it....ACCIDENT! Nothing more, nothing less.May those poor souls rest in eternal peace.
What else could it possibly be, but an accident, didn't they immediately rule out terrorism,even though ukraine did threaten both usa and Europe of damaging their infrastructure if they didn't get more money, but nothing to see here 😕
@@user-fz8fy4zl1c hadn’t heard of Ukraine threatening us. That would be very foolish of them. I believe….just about nothing, any longer.
YOU ARE SERIOUSLY NAIVE TO THINK THIS WAS JUST AN "ACCIDENT."
If tugboats would have got the ship to open water this would have never happened
They have to examine the recorder and the maintenance of the ship. If this ship was not maintained then this was not an accident but inevitable. Someone who stands in the middle of the street and waits for a car to hit is not an accident.
Original bridge cost 1.2 billion $ ( adjusted $) and 3 years to build...lol....there is a 5 mile stretch of i30 in Arkansas that hasn't been completed in 5 years....this DOT is just another failure of the present administration policies...
It is wonderful and sad to see the genuine focus on the hard work of immigrants in showing that they were in the heart of this terrible bridge collapse.
IOWA
PRAYERS to the Families & Friends & Maryland!!!
Civil Engineer MARSIA, could they just rebuild the part of the approaches & Bridge that had fell in the River?
And not the the whole road & Bridge!
You need sombody to help you to improve the reconstruction equipments and low down the cost, that is China
Also, remove sunken vehicles and containers
Who ever owns that ship need to be the one's who pay to cleanup and replace the bridge, it should NOT be on the American people to pay for any of it
Pathetically inadequate cranes for the time being. Are they waiting for real ones that could actually do useful work to sail over from Rotterdam?
Get the mess cleaned up now!!!~* MOVE IT NOW!!!!
The company that owns the ship should pay for some of tbe bridge or insurance company that are responsible they will get sued for the lives the lives that were lost
i think see can better build under water than a bridge
The real civil engineering question is why hadn't the Maryland Department of Transportation built properly configured dolphins (bumpers) to address a modern ship mass? I suspect this failure will be blamed on someone who has died. You can't prevent all accidents, so you put in protection structures. There should have been a study and reasons it wasn't done in the Department. If not, that shows a failure also. Some reporter should investigate this, because this is where a big story is.
Some have wondered if the bumpers would have saved it and the bridge was installed in 1977 and this is the first issue since it was constructed. Plus hide sight is 20/20
The pillars took a direct hit. A ship the size of an aircraft carrier with the amount of weight (mass) moving at approximately 8 mph along with the current wouldn't be stopped or deflected by bumpers or fenders around the pylons.
@@salvationxtruth47011977 is not the olden days. The Golden Gate Bridge south pier has a large barrier around it, built in the 1930's. These so-called engineers must consider adverse possibilities.
@@stephanieadams3747Again you are wrong Steph. That is like saying a rock island would not stop it. A steel and concrete barrier of correct size will prevent this from happening.
Ain`t they supposed to have a local pilot to enter or exit the port for this kind of ship?
Apparently you are more than a few days behind
Yes there was two of them.
How they gonna get all that in that water
What?
SanFrancisco was able to implode the old bay bridge while the channel stayed traffic free😜🚢🇺🇸
That was the east span(Oakland side) of the SF Bay Bridge. The container ships travel under the west side (SF side) If you were too compare the two areas, this is more akin to the GG bridge in the relation to SF harbor at large and Bmore harbor.
2:52 get it together folks. 😒🙄
xDD You know why
Need better anchors.
That's what you think would have prevented this accident? They had seconds to react. You need distance and enough time for an anchor to stop a ship that big with that much mass moving forward, plus the current pulling it towards the ocean.
The way that this is being handled is complete Bull SH** , The shipping Co Should Pay For the hole thing. If I hit someone in the ass with my car, It my fault and my Auto Insurance pay Not the Government!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those cranes aren’t that big.
Call the Germans
Exactly!
Mayor pete called this bridge racist last year
Likely talking about you
You call that a crane. It's going to take forever.
That is not the Chesapeake 1000
The shipping company should pay for the bridge, that is why they have insurance. Why are Dems so focused on tax dollars paying for it?
also, reporters played the "poor migrant" card but Im guessing they were making $28-35/hr and for sure had Workers Comp Insurance....though tragic they lost thier lives their families will have some compensation. If the families hire an atty and the ship is found 100% liable, under maritime law, they wil all become millionaires, albeit later rather than sooner.
And you are playing the "special needs" card... Did you miss your ride on the *short bus* ? You fucking asshat...
So much disinformation.
Thank god for DEI representatives. Am I right?
NO! You are idiotic!
another bill to the taxpayer so we can import cheap crap at the expense of the american laborer
Intentionally going through the bridge 🌉 my analysis nak
Cmom
8billiom
That’s just the first estimate which you see the final one
So sad😂
This will move just about as quickly and efficiently as mr. biden can string together a coherent sentence...
Tripe
Thats cool the the president of the civil engineering society is a woman ❤
Why? Are you a *lesbian* too? 🤔
Likely homosexual
Aaaahhhhh! I see we have the political pot boiling already. This commentator is stupid.
