Form and Function

Introduction:

Specifications

This project is meant to represent the manipulation of a preexisting bridge structure and implement a new functionality to it. This will be achieved by integrating a 3-dimensional object and its components to derive a dynamic and unique movement system for a creative solution.

Bridge Span: 190'

Bridge Width: 12'

Depth below grade: 10'

Opening Width: 30'

Opening Height: 40'

Depth below grade: 10'
