| [[Kutai Kartanegara Bridge]] (Indonesia) over the [[Mahakam River]], located in [[Kutai Kartanegara Regency]], [[East Kalimantan]] district on the [[Indonesia]] island of [[Borneo]], was built in 1995 until it was completed in 2001 and happen collapsed in 2011. Dozens of vehicles on the bridge fell into the [[Mahakam River]]. As a result of this incident, 24 people died and dozens of others were injured and were treated at the Aji Muhammad Parikesit Regional Hospital. Meanwhile, 12 people were reported missing, 31 people were seriously injured, and 8 people had minor injuries. Research findings indicate that the collapse was largely caused by the construction failure of the vertical hanging clamp. It was also found that poor maintenance, fatigue in the cable hanger construction materials, material quality, and bridge loads that exceed vehicle capacity, can also have an impact on bridge collapse. In 2013 the [[Kutai Kartanegara Bridge]] rebuilt the same location and completed in 2015 with a [[Through arch bridge]] design. | [[Kutai Kartanegara Bridge]] (Indonesia) over the [[Mahakam River]], located in [[Kutai Kartanegara Regency]], [[East Kalimantan]] district on the [[Indonesia]] island of [[Borneo]], was built in 1995 until it was completed in 2001 and happen collapsed in 2011.
