It’s Better Now
This bridge needed repairs badly. The joints between the sections were not joining nicely and were damaging tires of passing by cars. Well, they repaired it. From the first site it looks like they did a good job - covered all the joints with thick metal sheets. But let’s look closer…

First!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aye! Yer the first moron of the day! har har!
I’m gay, ginger and Scottish! It doesn’t get any worse
OMG Russian Engineering cant get any worse than that. No wonder Bridges collapse in Russia all the time
Your Estonian Economy is collapsing faster!
nice try. I am not- as you probably see - estonian. estonians nazies? or putinjugend?
why do people in general think that brainwashing is common in Northern Korea? Why do people in general think that russian newspapers have “different story about the truth”? Why do Al_Jazeera tell this again somewhat the other way? Why do “democratic” states always need to state in their names that they are , indeed democratic? Peoples republic of China. United States of Democratic America… sometimes you need to be able to read inbetween the lines too:)
Rossija, krassivo. It is damned beautiful and that is why we keep on going on to this site, It is about learning. There was a different kind of political system, so? Empire of Evil tends anyway not to be the absolut Pravda according to Boston Globe.
Estonian act of language law sucks big time yes. It is from the thirties. Russian newspapers are not finding these stories of nowhere. Estonia is not an equal country.
Russian media is anyway A WAY FUCKING more telling pRAVDA RUSSIAN WAY! Waky waky rossijan people!
I may consider converting my name into The.
Highly appreciating in advance to the estonian-russian conversation table of tolerance, J
Just a comment: Estonian (and Latvian) language law is there for a reason. You know that very well. The reason being that Soviet era immigrants/colonists who arrived after in HUGE quantities after WWII did not find it necessary to learn local language, forcing everybody to speak Russian instead. So it was necessary to introduce special norms which tell people that if they want to be e.g. doctors, or to become naturalized citizens, then they shall know the local language. Very simple requirement, which exists also in many other countries. But, obviously, to many people it is still not clear that Russian Soviet Empire is gone for good. Hence the fuss. You may say that the language law sucks, but the situation which caused it to be introduced sucks much more. Alternative would be every Estonian (Latvian) mandatory speaking Russian. But 50 years in USSR was enough, believe me…
omg Russians think they are so smart by fixing this road.Too bad it was not done right!
Looks like you need a committee there to solve the problem of the studs sticking out of the plate steel. I’ll send over a advance party for discussions on this matter, then we can do a study.
I figure sometime by 2014 we can purchase a grinder from the local Harbor Freight for a cost analysis, studies and environmental impact survey. If it passes, we could have it too you by 2020 or so, and I am sure a skilled worker could grind down those studs in just a few minutes.
Mr Obama.
You forgot the 40% to 70% cost overruns and the union labor that will require 6 people to arrange logistics and rent the machinery, 4 men to collect the machinery, and 8 men to operate the grinder plus a union steward to supervise the entire operation.
Plus: by BOLTING the two halves of the bridge together, they are endangering the rest of the bridge! Those are EXPANSION JOINTS, they are there for a reason: to allow the bridge deck segments to expand when it gets hot.
The thermal expansion builds up a lot of stress in the materials, and if that stress is not relieved by movement at those joints, it will be relieved … somewhere else, who knows where? Like, in the concrete support beams. I do not believe that any civil engineer signed off on that change - or that’s an engineer who should lose his or her license to practice.
Bingo. You beat me to it.
In Russia your car doesn’t breaks the road the road breaks your car.
I guess the repair is an improvement than before, imagine how bad it would be in unrepaired condition.
А на Савеле на мосту вообще лист железа просто положили сверху.
Идешь под мостом, а оно сверху - ТЫДЫЩ!!!!
Кстати, очень похоже что этот самый лист и приварили. Завтра зайду посмотрю.
I don’t want to write on bloody english, sorry, mate.
@ Adan:
Well for christ sake we all type in english even though for most of us it it not the main language. Just to understand each other… when possible.
Join the club or go to a russian only site you russian cock sucker!
This is ENGLISH Russia not Russian Russia you fool!

det som jag gillar med dig är den där toleransen som jag försökte predika om. nuja, vi alla gör våra misstag. har du förresten bytt alufälgarna på din sierra?
Dummer finnischer Junge, saugen Sie meinen Hahn!
Do not ‘do it’ with mother Russia, or else there will be holes in your tires.
You know, there are some countries where if your car get damaged or the tyres blowns up because the goberment is not doing their job, or doing it the wrong way on streets, the goberment must pay the damage,that is not good for the tyres, and as Bryan said, not good for the bidge too. I live in Venezuela, and let me tell you, I do expect that from these undeveloped half-indian people; but come on, in russia it should be much better.
If you are going to do a such crappy work, don´t do anything
wrong.
“undeveloped half-indian people”. Come on you mestitso.
It is so wrong as it can be in your writing.
oh, sorry boy that I couldn´t write the perfect english you like, I thought that it would be enought if somebody understand me even if it wasn´t a perfect english.
Don´t call me mestizo, spanish killed every single indian in cuba, and there are no black people in my family, in fact we tend to be racists, not to hate blacks, just discriminate them a lot even if we have a black friend. or is it that for being born in latin america I have now brown skin and a bone in my head? look, latin america is not just dominica and guatemala, ok, there are white people in this area, cultural diversity, and good people (depending where you go); and judging for the comment you made, many of them have more brain than you.
Did you understand? or should I have to write it in a perfect english so it can fit in that tiny brain you have?
The old saying is, in Russia there are two biggest problems - the idiots and the roads (duraki i dorogi).
This is a perfect example of the combination of the two
And one problem is trying to fix the other
Except Russia has much bigger problems
hahahaha…russian idiots!!:D:D
erm they dont collapse all the time, they have never
That’s because in Soviet Russia the bridges collaps YOU!
Thats fucked and should last about a month
OMG that should peel off in about 2 weeks and go thru some babushka window.
In defense of the Russian “engineers” who thought of this solution, the first and only time I saw this kind of road repairs was when I visited Manhattan in New York City. There I saw many of these steel plates with even bigger bolts on busy intersections with large numbers of cars and heavy trucks not even bothering anymore to avoid them…
The new russian girls photo trend page has some interesting comments that Nina and Julia do not like!
Would anyone like to add to it?
FAIL
That joints are for allow the bridge to contract and expand due to variations in temperature, if it are fixed in that way -not allowing it movement- it is very likely to have cracks that could produce an structural failure.
that thin steel plate will warp if there is any contraction of the span because only that portion is fused .It would take a complete fuse on each side of the sub footing and the span to produce a buckle in the super structural itself .
Physics is so much fun .
