A National Transportation Safety Board official has announced that the structure of the collapsed Baltimore bridge will be thoroughly examined as part of the agency's investigation. The NTSB chair, Jennifer Homendy, mentioned that there are concerns regarding the bridge's structure and that the agency will delve into how the Francis Scott Key Bridge was constructed.
Homendy emphasized that the NTSB is well-versed in the standards that a structure should meet and will closely scrutinize the design and construction of the bridge. She stated, 'All of that will be a part of our investigation. We go very broad in our investigation.'
