This best-selling programme explores how bridges are made, focusing on the physics used in design and construction. The design process is explored step-by-step from construction to completion and includes a look at materials and how costs are governed by environmental, aesthetic and functional concerns. These key issues are discussed by Technical Manager Cliff Sagot and Senior Structural Engineer Natalie Balcott from The Robert Bird Group. Their first hand knowledge provides an invaluable look into how these structures bring land and people together and also illustrates the shortfalls of bad design.
