      @@SSK1977FEB turn of ship was caused by "propeller effect", the term for a propeller's tendency to rotate about a vertical axis (also known as yaw motion).
      After power eas restored they started the main engine (used for ship propulsion) on astern. The MV Dali engine is reversible, so when they put the ship's engine on astern the propeller start to turn clockwise pushing ship's hull to starboard. When ship is on astern, the turning lever is too small for the rudder to actually turn the vessel, therefore the rudder effect on ship is virtually ineffective. This behavior of the ship had to be known by the captain.
      That's why I always said is HUMAN ERROR caused by incompetency onboard.
      Onboard MV Dali the mistakes and lavk of professionalism piled up with this result.

      FEMA's response to Hurricane Katrina is unfortunately still seen as fairly typical of the USA's response to natural disasters and deteriorating infrastructure makes man-made disasters increasingly frequent, due to tax-cutting attitudes. Cost-cutting decisions on the safety construction aspects of the bridge in question here reveal the attitude to be "penny-wise and pound-foolish".

      So there are two "causes" of note: 1) the cause of the ship's loss of power, and 2) the cause of the bridge collapse. The investigation will focus mainly on the first one (the "root" cause), and the video did not speculate on that aspect. The cause of the bridge collapse was obviously the allision of the MV Dali against a main structural support; there is no investigation needed. No bridge is designed to withstand that type of impact on the main structure, hence the deployment of protective dolphins etc. on other bridges.

A different body that are responsible for the Safety routes,before and after passing of the bridge. The Ship was going in a wrong direction route to collided towards the Leg posts concrete foundation of the bridge. Four minutes,before the collision is not enough to correct the right lane routes,as even though whether there is or no engine failure,due to super long of the ship,big loaded,continuous drifting of the ship (8 knots) Different to a Corvettes that can easily change its course. I heard a U.S. Aircraft Carrier do passing the bridge for only 5 knots. In the first place from the start of navigation,when departed from the port of origin,if not use radar,the compass must set to desired degree course. Where in the Center of the span,arc shape of the structural,in that blinkering light. If not there must be two(2) pilots Fwd & Aft,handheld radio directing what’s happening,the position of the ship,towards the blinkering light,Center of the span. Especially in the Fwd pilot. There is something happened engine failure or drifting,Ship is still in safe position. But already 4 minutes Ship is still,not in a proper location,heading towards the Leg posts concrete foundation.

      The lattice truss is one continuous structure. Removal of any one support exceeds the strength of the other, interlocked, members. You can see the lattice snapping at each support leg as their tensile strength is rapidly exceeded.
      The ramps that remained are not part of the truss section but can be considered single span bridges in their own right. Although I haven’t seen any shots of end of the remaining ramps, I expect virtually no damage with the truss section parting away at the expansion joints.
      Hope this helps.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the ship lost power because of neglect. Maintenance and repairs delayed or skipped entirely due to cost. Management decisions that resulted managers getting bonuses and promotions for cost savings, for keeping the ship in service when it should have been taken out of service for repairs and maintenance. As an industrial mechanic, I've had to watch the machinery destroying itself because the production manager demanded production on scheduled maintenance days, As lead mechanic, excessive downtime due to major breakdowns were blamed on me. Fortunately, the production plant I worked for didn't crash into anything or kill anyone. Of course, the managers that made the critical decisions resulting in this accident hold themselves blameless. Technicians have probably been disciplined or fired.

    I would like to know if the ship deployed the starboard anchor or the port anchor. The course line of the ship was naturally to the starboard side of the bridge channel (like staying in your right lane on the highway) and thus if any effort to veer the ship course was to be made with the anchor, it should have been the port side anchor that was deployed. Having seen some ostensibly accurate AIS course information, the ship apparently began to veer to starboard towards the bridge pylon not too long before the collision. I wonder if the starboard anchor was deployed causing the starboard veer, whereas a port anchor would have tended to steer the ship more towards the port side and perhaps cleared the abutments. Hindsight is always 20/20. I feel badly for all concerned, especially the families of the workers killed.

    Why did the Pilots not ordering both anchors out, at the first black out? (6 minuts left before collision with the Bridge) Both anchors at the bottom of the channel with 4 - 6 lengths of heavy chain in the water might have stopped the ship before ramming the bridge. A black out is always a warning saying, something isn`t working correct and it´s better trying to stop the vessel before it´s ramming a bridge etc. When they had power again, for some seconds the ME should have been sat to going astern.

      Dropping anchors does not stop a ship any faster than dumping the air on a train or locking up the brakes in a land vehicle. Dropping the port anchor was a desperate attempt to steer the ship to port. Alas, even if it had been effective, it was attempted too late.

    Yeah, I heard a rumble in at like 130 almost 120 so I’m in the morning live in Curtis Bay Cypress St., Avenue. The reason it fell so quickly is they got rain guards up on the bridge and it’s like 2 to 3 feet down with no semen for rain coming off the metal until the bridge. If you go on Google maps you will see what I’m talking about, the metal beans on the ground where the rain goes into goes across the road that’s where the bridge claps from if you go on the map, you will see that rain guard going cross it that’s why it fell so easily

      Yeah, its super easy to manually turn a rudder that weighs several tons by hand even though that's literally impossible and utterly reliant on a powered system to turn such a heavy component.
      Not to mention that without the propellers moving water past the rudder the rudder can't stear the ship anyway, you know, the proppellers without power.
      But your correct, they should have just turned the rudder and spun the 10 ton proppellers by hand because of how easy and feasible that is in imagination land.

  • @dand7772
    @dand7772 3 місяці тому +10

    MOSTLY FALSE INFORMATION. Here's why. The ship lost electrical power, NOT engine power and not rudder control. There are 3 diesel powered electrical generators to provide the vital electrical needs of a 100,000 ton vessel. These generators power bow thrusters which assist in docking, but not while underway. With only 4000 feet remaining, the ship went to full reverse. This is proven because the speed went from 8k to 7k and a large smoke plume can be seen. No captain would go to reverse because full reverse CAUSES a swing to starboard. The only possible answer is that a crewmember in the engine control room made the engine go to full reverse at the exact worst time. The rudder on a large vessel does not swing out of control with the loss of either electrical or engine power. The rudder has nothing to do with the turn.

    I'm having trouble buying this explanation. I've seen at least two videos showing the impact of the ship and the resultant collapse of the bridge. At least one of these videos has been doctored. One video shows an 18-wheeler traveling across the bridge and it gets about 80% of the way across before the ship strikes the bridge. At the moment of impact, the 18-wheeler ceases to exist. It doesn't fall into the water. It doesn't continue on its way across the bridge. It simply ceases to exist. The other video doesn't show a single vehicle still remaining on the bridge at the time of impact. Both of these videos cannot be full, actual accounts of what took place. So, why the doctored video(s)?
