When infrastructure breaks, commenters usually say it was fragile. But there’s a better word: brittle. Therefore, if you strive to clear, heed this usage note from the American Heritage Dictionary:
“Fragile applies to objects that are not made of strong or sturdy material and that require great care when handled: fragile porcelain plates.
“Brittle refers to inelasticity that makes something especially likely to fracture or snap when it is subjected to pressure: brittle bones.”

Screenshot from American Heritage Dictionary: “Synonyms: fragile, breakable, frangible, flimsy, brittle These adjectives mean easily broken or damaged. Fragile applies to objects that are not made of strong or sturdy material and that require great care when handled: fragile porcelain plates. Breakable and frangible mean capable of being broken but do not necessarily imply inherent weakness: breakable toys; frangible bullets designed to break apart on impact. Flimsy refers to what is easily broken because of inferior materials or workmanship: "Flimsy and loosely built structures collapsed like houses of cards under the terrific wrenching and shaking" (Richard L. Humphrey). Brittle refers to inelasticity that makes something especially likely to fracture or snap when it is subjected to pressure: brittle bones. See Also Synonyms at weak.”
