Built From Disaster
From the towering heights of the Empire State Building to the modern marvels of the Federation Tower, this documentary explores the evolution of skyscraper design and the critical lessons learned from past structural failures. Through the lens of engineering, it examines how catastrophic events like the 1985 Mexico City earthquake and the 9/11 attacks have fundamentally reshaped the way we build, emphasizing the importance of structural integrity, fire safety, and redundancy in the face of both natural and man-made disasters.
