Deaths and injuries to construction workers by far exceed the number of fatalities of the bridge users in failure events. Structural design methods related to construction loads and equipment need to be refined. Physical causes are varied such as erosion‚ reversal of stress‚ impact‚ vibra-tions‚ wind‚ and extreme events. Usually‚ it is a combination of dead load stress

Investigation: In site investigation‚ the structural engineer designed the foundation base on the soil investigation done by Excavating about 160cm underground‚ the land used to be a valley before it was leveled‚ so investigation helps in testing soil’s bearing load and properties. b. Project managing After the engineers have examined the site‚ all technical drawings are in the trailer office‚ where the material documentations‚ architectural and structural drawings are placed for site execution.
