Project 1- Form and Function

The objective of this project was to design and develop a bridge with an adjustable opening from the designs of a pre-existing bridge style. The functional ideas came from concepts from household items.

Criteria:

  • 190' bridge span

  • Must clear a 30' x 40' block

  • Max height: 100'

  • No structural member greater than 20'

  • No structural members in the water

Anchor 1

Bayonne Bridge (Arch)

Charles City Pedestrian Bridge (Cable-Stay)

Outerbridge Crossing (Cantilever)

The 3 x 3 table shows the combination of each form (arch, cable-stay, and cantilever) with the functions of three household items: an adjustable wrench, ice cream scooper and garden shears
