Man dies after getting hit by falling parts of Metro Bridge in Rawalpindi

[OTTOMAN]

Nothing wrong with the bridge, it was actually the extra concrete usually left after the construction , and it fell on the person below.

Hats off to metro haters for making it an issue of poor quality.

No Sir, with all due respect, picture posted in reference to subject, does not suggest what you state.
I have stated before, there are signs of serious construction quality absence in structure.
Plaster is not needed on pre fab concrete columns... if some one is putting plaster it already raise suspicions.
Other than that appearance of work is third rate....
I'm sure a basic audit would reveal what I have stated and much more.
It is already criminal to spend state resources in idiotic manner and building ugly structures.... all over the world cost of such infrastructures are so high because they are built to last long and show the quality of its production.

@Bouncer Project Management only has to deliver what's sold and on time and if they manage to do it at less than forecast its bonus¨!
If any clauses of quality were stipulated in contract, than its Project Managment's task to ensure its delivery with support of respective reports / docs. Nothing more!
I have many family members as Civil Engineers, and also like of yours... Electrical turned into Project Managers.
This is why, I understand basics of structural Engineering.
What I see in picture is a damage on prefab. structure... which is NOT built on site.... but its surface quality shows, its built in some non certified setup. Therefore, I'm sure if any sort of quality control was in place in its construction, it may have stood its structural integrity for centuries to come.
It seems to be more of a case of supplier qualification,,,, i.e. corruption and ineptness in award of contract, or draft of contract, not really too much of project management issue... in this incidence. They may surface in audit in other dimensions.
IMO, Politicians need to stay clear of any sort of planning and execution of contracts.

This is what happens when u vote for a corrupt government like goon league. They're as bad as PPP and MQM. This party won't bring any change to Pakistan.

This is quite misunderstanding among people head.
Actually voting is the real cause of destruction of Pakistan... PMLN is doing far better than PPP, and zardari govt. was saved by non other than PTI.
Presidential seat for zardari was vacated by PTI in most illegal fashion.

When was this constructed?

When did you joined this forum?

This is what happens when democracy delivers.
When it doesn't than after 5 years, we vote others.
trust me, this is best a democracy can deliver.

Honey, I am probably one of the most qualified persons on here. I don't brag about it.

Your grammar suggest otherwise, but lets hear about your qualifications.

Not a metro, just a flyover.

The post of Tink Tanks also suggest otherwise.

The reason voting is the real reason for the destruction of Pakistan is because they're rigged. If the election is rigged then corrupt people will have turns in a way sucking Pakistan's blood. You don't need to be a PTI supporter or a conspiracy theorist to see that. No one that is sincere will come into power in Pakistan. That's why IK won't come into power. He actually wants to make change but stupid mistakes by him now opened the door for the the other parties to take jabs at his incompetence. This then gets aired in the media and makes a mockery of him making themselves look better. This is the reality. If u vote for leaders like NS this is the result u deserve. Democracy will not work with these corrupt people. Army needs to clean up the mess. They need to do to PMLN like what they did to MQM.

No need to go in fine details, just help self proclaimed @MilSpec with its construction date.

When did I "joined" the forum ?
isn't it quite apparent from the sidebar.

Why do you have to get defensive about when it was constructed, it was just a general query...

My vote is always casted, while I'm never in Pakistan, this happens to all the millions of Pakistanis living abroad.
Ever wonder, why postal votes are not allowed?
IK will not tell you this... he will always mislead lead his followers, but in reality he knows exactly how fake votes are casted, what is wrong and how it is done.
Democracy means.... put up a drama for public consumption, keep them entangled and enjoy yearly budget and power, slowly but steadily appoint faithful civil administration and run the show.
You know politicians are forced to beat the rigging bush, just because of army's sacrifices on front lines, otherwise the favorite bush for them to beat is Army.

After joining you lost internet connection, and was never able to open this website.
Still, assuming you work for RAW, your missions in Islamabad, Afghanistan, Iran are monitoring the color of shit we Pakistanis make.
How come you never came across this project, which is on daily news and hundreds of threads on this forum related to it.!
It may be a general inquiry from its out look,, but there's no way you could miss to come across the daily discussions about it and suddenly decide to join today.
You Indians can't expect the reality of any positive development in Pakistan... you are habitual in underplaying all positive things from Pakistan.
I'm sure non of Indian media would tell Indians that 2 students of Pakistan won Germany's young scientist award this year and two students won Cern's best scientist award last week.

And you posts suggests you have no background. Let's hear yours.....a PHD for H1B? That's it, I guessed it and that's a MAX!

LOL, look who is telling people about being "defensive". That word was designed for you. I won't be surprised if that's your real first name but you used your middle name instead

So what Mil Spec are you working on? Creating water proof fire crackers? Let me know when the RFP is out, I'll send a few of my guy to bid on the proposal and provide some real "mil specs"!

Just an example of one of the most 'highly qualified' people we have on this forum. And that too an American.

did a human wrote these using their head or was an alien from Mars writing those knowing nothing about the planet earth

I don't know where he got his degree from, but the place where I studied from, this guy wouldn't have passed an English 101 course!

That's corrosion.....in the US, places like Florida and Louisiana get this stuff a LOT due to heavy rains. They should file a complaint in the court against the builder and seek damages. One thing I am sure of, this damage wasn't done by NS or SS or some "member" of their family . For all other matters, follow the system, file the complaint with the respective department and if the builder doesn't fix it, go take them to court.

I am personally about to do something like this on a property I bought and the builder is refusing to fix damages that showed up rather quickly. And I live in America!!!! Point is, this happens everywhere. Doesn't mean I should start blaming our government for it. We have a justice system that work, and there is one in Pakistan too. Use it for your advantage!!!

Mate, unless you are blind (either physically or objectively), that in no way is rust.

The circle on the left has the finishing paint cracking off, while the one on the right shows concrete parts just falling off...

There isn't rust within a million miles of that picture.

NO PM or CM or even the CEO of a company have to go for an accident like this.

I wonder why the CEO of Volkswagen group then left the company after the emissions scandal broke out...stupid guy.

@Viper0011. you beauty....

Just an example of one of the most 'highly qualified' people we have on this forum. And that too an American.

You can court Americans when it doesn't suits you, and can befriend with them when they announce to build nuclear reactors in Iran.


I seriously hope that he lives, being an educated and non compliant entity.
