Description

This volume from the Masterpieces series presents contemporary bridges of different types from around the world. Variety of structural tasks and materials was given priority during project selection. Simple beam and arch bridges, spanning just a few meters, are found alongside complex engineering achievements such as multiple cable-stayed bridges of enormous reach. Here, you will find bridges by declared specialists in the field as well as aesthetic masterpieces and true giants by well-known architects who are usually active in other disciplines.
