Description

Bridges shape landscapes and cities, structures of great value to society. They document what was technically feasible when built, revealing the mobility and materiality of that time. This publication explores how traffic and bridge construction have evolved since then, identifying areas for further potential. Engineers can make complex evaluations of bridges with this book, which inspires new thinking about their design, construction, and maintenance. It covers topics such as history, materials selection, design approaches, construction types, methods, and possibilities for repair and restoration. Examples of impressive projects demonstrate how technology, architecture, science, and innovative solutions can be successfully integrated. The publication offers ideas for planning tomorrow's infrastructure, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the subject.
