Disasters Engineered Season 2 Episode 1

We take modest engineering masterpieces, like the homes we live in and the bridges we walk across, for granted. So, when disaster strikes, it sends shockwaves throughout society. When London’s Grenfell Tower catches fire, its hundreds of residents must escape a deadly inferno; expert engineers investigate and reveal how the building’s engineering caused the disaster to escalate tragically. Also investigated is the collapse of a pedestrian bridge in 2018 at Florida International University in Miami.
