Horrific Video of New York City Parking Garage Collapsing
A shocking video of the top floor of a parking structure crumbling down in New York City is sweeping the internet.
New York City has limited parking spaces. Travelers and even residents are forced to keep their cars stored in a parking structure. Some keep them there long term. Some parking structures have to house hundreds of cars throughout multiple levels.
How do these structures hold tons of weight? The proper placement of concrete and steel can make sure these structures can support the weight.
