← HistoryWhich risk increases when a pontoon bridge experiences resonance?
A)Deck collapse due to amplification✓
B)Cable slack from thermal expansion
C)Pier sinking from seabed liquefaction
D)Rope fraying due to overload
💡 Explanation
Resonance amplifies oscillations; therefore, deck collapse becomes likely, because the increased vibration exceeds the structural tolerances of the bridge components. This occurs due to mechanical amplification, rather than cable slack or pier instability.
