10 Interesting Fact About The physics and engineering behind bridges and tunnels

Transcript:

Languages:

• Tunnels and Bridges make roads to move efficiently between two locations.
• Bridge and tunnel design is strongly influenced by natural conditions such as land shape, weather, height, and water conditions.
• Safety factors, costs, materials, and ways of manufacture must also be considered when designing bridges and tunnels.
• The most common bridge structures are suspension bridges, tunnel bridges, plate bridges, and block bridges.
• The main components of the bridge include abutment, pillars, currents, and plates.
• Tunnels are often made using underground tunnel excavation techniques.
• Tunnel excavation techniques can be used to connect two adjacent or distant locations.
• Tunnel design must consider natural conditions, safety, costs, and comfort.
• The main components of the tunnel include the entrance, exit, road, walls, and floor plates.
• Some modern technologies used in bridge and tunnel design include steel technology, concrete, and electrical technology.
