Which consequence resulted from inadequate Quipu data about Apurímac bridge rope strain?

💡 Explanation

Undetected rope degradation causes the bridge's natural frequency to drop closer to common excitation frequencies, initiating resonant vibrations because the positive feedback from the Sway-Brace Mechanism amplifies deck oscillations. Therefore, resonance increases, rather than changed deck properties.
