Heavy rainfall and fast-moving water streams often lead to catastrophic bridge failures, causing extensive damage and disrupting transportation networks. Several factors contribute to these failures, including inadequate design, poor maintenance, and climate events. In many cases, bridges are not designed to withstand the intense hydrodynamic forces exerted by swollen rivers and streams during heavy rains. The scouring effect of fast-moving water can erode bridge foundations, leading to structural instability. Poor maintenance practices exacerbate the problem, as routine inspections and repairs are often neglected. This neglect can result in undetected wear and tear, making bridges more vulnerable to collapse.
Environmental factors such as soil erosion, sediment build-up, and debris accumulation further compromise bridge stability. The lack of proper drainage systems exacerbates flooding, increasing pressure on bridge structures. Additionally, the impact of climate change has led to more unpredictable and severe weather patterns, intensifying the monsoon's effects.
