Bridge
A bridge is a structure built to span a physical obstacle (such as a body of water, valley, road, or rail) without blocking the way underneath. It is constructed for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle, which is usually something that is otherwise difficult or impossible to cross. There are many different designs of bridges, each serving a particular purpose and applicable to different situations. Designs of bridges vary depending on factors such as the function of the bridge, the nature of the terrain where the bridge is constructed and anchored, and the material used to make it, and the funds available to build it. The earliest bridges were likely made with fallen trees and stepping stones. The Neolithic people built boardwalk bridges across marshland. The Arkadiko Bridge (dating from the 13th century BC, in the Peloponnese) is one of the oldest arch bridges still in existence and use. Etymology The '' Oxford English Dictionary'' traces the origin of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pivdennyi Bridge (Kyiv)
The Pivdennyi Bridge ( uk, Південний міст - Southern bridge) in Kyiv, Ukraine was designed by the architect A. Gavrilov ("Mostobud") and a group of engineers headed by G. Fux, was built in 1990. Overview It is the second metro bridge in Kyiv, serving both the Syretsko-Pecherska metro line and road traffic. The cables holding the spans on the bridge are supported by a ferroconcrete double-column pylon in height. The bridge currently has three traffic lanes in both directions (total of six). It connects the Smaller Ring Road around the center of Kyiv. The bridge is part of the / and is formally an extension of the local Promyslova Street. About 1.5 miles north from it is building a new bridge. In 2010 a railway traffic portion of that bridge was finished, while the automobile traffic was scheduled to be established sometime in 2011. The whole project, however, is supposed to end around 2015. See also * Bridges in Kyiv References External links *Bridge profile ...

Cable-stayed Bridge
A cable-stayed bridge has one or more ''towers'' (or ''pylons''), from which cables support the bridge deck. A distinctive feature are the cables or stays, which run directly from the tower to the deck, normally forming a fan-like pattern or a series of parallel lines. This is in contrast to the modern suspension bridge, where the cables supporting the deck are suspended vertically from the main cable, anchored at both ends of the bridge and running between the towers. The cable-stayed bridge is optimal for spans longer than cantilever bridges and shorter than suspension bridges. This is the range within which cantilever bridges would rapidly grow heavier, and suspension bridge cabling would be more costly. Cable-stayed bridges were being designed and constructed by the late 16th century, and the form found wide use in the late 19th century. Early examples, including the Brooklyn Bridge, often combined features from both the cable-stayed and suspension designs. Cable-stayed ...

Pivnichnyi Bridge
The Pivnichnyi Bridge ( uk, Північний міст) or Northern Bridge is a structure in Kyiv, Ukraine, built in 1976. It is a cable-stayed bridge, designed by the architect Mikhail Krasnoshtein (later, Mikhail Asianov) and engineer G. B. Fux. The beam of the main span is held by a cluster of steel ropes which are fixed to a tall A- pylon. It is notable that as a result of Soviet-era state-sponsored anti-semitism, a non-Jewish architect from Kharkiv (A. V. Dobrovolsky) was brought in to take credit for the bridge's architecture just prior to the official opening of the bridge, and this remains the official record. This record forgery was approved by A. F. Bersheda, the Director of the Kyiv architecture bureau (KievSoyuzDorProekt) at the time. Until February 2018 the bridge was named Moskovskyi Bridge ( uk, Московський міст) or Moscow Bridge. As part of Ukraine's current decommunization process the bridge was nominated to be renamed for almost a year prior ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
