The Collapse of the Lat Krabang Bridge: Insights into the Structural Analysis and Causes by Prof. Dr. Panchet Thammarak

July 17, 2023 – Tortrakul Yomanak, the former president of the Institute of Engineering of Thailand under the Royal Patronage of His Majesty the King, took to Facebook to address the family of Yom Nakha, the individual responsible for the collapse of the bridge over the Lat Krabang intersection. According to Mr. Yomanak, the incident occurred during the prestressed wire removal process, as an attempt to bring the construction to completion. However, the concrete that was poured to connect on top of the column failed to withstand the immense compressive strength, resulting in a catastrophic explosion and subsequent continuous landslide.

Supporting this perspective is the analysis conducted by Professor Dr. Panchet Thammarak, a renowned lecturer in structural engineering at AIT. In his Facebook post, Dr. Thammarak provides a detailed explanation and structural analysis, accompanied by clear visuals, which can be found on his profile under the name Punchet Thammarak. To ensure wider dissemination of this information, I have taken the liberty to summarize and translate the content into a simplified explanation. Let us strive to share this valuable insight for the benefit of a larger audience.

Occurs in the prestressed wire removal process to add to completion But the concrete that was poured to connect on top of the column could not withstand the huge compressive strength, and it exploded, which is the beginning of a continuous landslide.

“It is an analysis by Professor Dr. Panchet Thammarak, lecturer in structural engineering at AIT, suggests that it is likely to be an important cause. There is an explanation, an analysis of the structure, and there are clear pictures on Facebook called Punchet Thammarak, which will have a description. and many more pictures Let me summarize and translate into a simple explanation. Let’s spread it to be useful in a wider range.
