included or the entire temporary structure technical system as a whole This can be related to the loads on the
structural members or the total system or to the resistance of the structural members or the total system
Question
List at least possible technical causes of failure of the technical system where the entire temporary
structure is regarded as the technical system, consisting of multiple elements focusing on the integrity of
technical system ie configuration, geometry, material, intactness, purity, dependencies and not on
instruction and execution. You should mention explicitly what member could have failed and because
of what mechanism.
Examples of possible technical causes of failure are:
The load bearing capacity of the foundation piles was insufficient because their length was insufficient.
Subsidence could occur, the columns moved vertically and the support of the temporary structure was insufficient,
thus resulting in full collapse.
The applied precast concrete planks were two times thicker than according to initial design. This resulted in a
larger total weight on top of the temporary structure. The posts of the vertical structure were overloaded and the
structure collapsed.
Note: keep your answer short, just a brief explanation is needed as illustrated in the examples above.
It is not allowed to include one of the hypotheses listed above
