Vehicle Bridge Construction Timelapse

A bridge is a structure built to go over a physical obstacle, such as a body of water or road, without closing the path underneath. It is constructed with the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle. Bridges balance two forces called compression and tension and need to be very strong to do so. They channel their load weight into their towers or cables and this distribution of weight keeps the bridge sturdy.

Bridges have a high strength to weight ratio, that is why they are able to stand strong for many years. Using materials that are known for their strength like steel, wood, stone and other metals ensures that bridges will be resilient. There are several types of bridges that have different elements they were built with to give them their strength.

Some Florida homeowners have the luxury of being surrounded by water, adding a beautiful scenery to your home. Although the concept itself is one many dream of, many times the only way to get to your home is over a bridge. That’s exactly why our team at Fender Marine Construction is hard at work to complete a pedestrian bridge construction in Dr. Phillips, a neighborhood in Orlando, Fl.

This vehicular bridge will give future homeowners access to their homes on the other side of the land.
