Description

LEGO bricks meet the world of engineering in this informative and fun guide. You'll explore how some of humanity's greatest feats of engineering work, from towering skyscrapers to powerful rockets to speeding bullet trains. Step-by-step instructions accompany over 30 models, all designed to help you understand the engineering principles behind these structures. You'll learn how diesel and electric engines work together to drive massive freight trains, how a container ship's bow shape contributes to its fuel efficiency, and how cable-stayed bridges distribute weight differently than suspension bridges. By building your way through these models, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the world around you and be able to make your own LEGO builds more realistic.
