It all comes down to bridging a gap. Researchers are helping companies develop new materials and products —- self-consolidating concrete columns and prestressed concrete bridge girders -- that bridge ...

Bridge Designer is a dedicated free software to create and analyze bridge structures on Windows 11/10. It is a simple yet effective software for creating various types of bridge structures. You can ...

Within the last ten years, the design, manufacture, installation and commissioning of moving bridges has emerged as a core business activity, with DavyMarkham engaged on a series of high profile ...

CONCRETE can last a very long time. The roof of the Pantheon in Rome is the world’s largest unreinforced concrete dome; it was completed in around 125AD by Hadrian, an emperor. But concrete structures ...

Load-bearing structures like bridges and shelters can be made with origami modules -- versatile components that can fold compactly and adapt into different shapes -- engineers have demonstrated. For ...

"This isn't just about one bridge. This is about private bridges on private property across the state," said Danbury Public Works Director Bill Buckley. Buckley argues that bridges are "structures," ...
