Resonance is a powerful phenomenon that engineers need to take into account when designing structures. In 2000, the Millennium Bridge in London began to wobble on its opening day, as the pedestrians began to synchronize their steps, first on accident, then on purpose to keep their balance as the bridge began to sway back and forth. In history, a number of bridge collapses have been attributed to resonance. Tall buildings are prone to the dangerous effects of resonance caused by earthquakes and the wind. Learn more about the topic of resonance and how it affects large structures by responding to each question below. Research and report on other bridge collapses or near collapses that have been caused by the effects of resonance. How do modern engineers design bridges to prevent these disasters? Do you think any of these bridge collapses or near collapses could have been prevented? Explain your answer, including your ideas for what could have been done differently. Research the TAIPEI 101 tower. How has this very tall building been protected against resonance? Do you think tall buildings like this can be built safely in locations prone to earthquakes? What do you think should be done to prevent bridges and towers that are prone to the effects of resonance from being built
