Introduction

Bridges are constructions that allow you to connect two points separated by all sorts of obstacles that would otherwise require a great effort to be traversed, with alternative routes, for example, or could not be crossed in any way.

The goal of this project was to design and build with timber glue and nylon a tough bridge and at the same time not

so heavy.
