How do you build a bridge that lasts a long time?

<p>Movies often use bridges to represent something, and they're often destroyed in the process. Antonia, Laura, Rwayda and Alex discuss the engineering behind some of the most iconic bridges as well as some of their favourite movie scenes featuring bridges: Spiderman, Indiana Jones and Shrek.</p> <p>We explain how engineers consider the dynamic forces acting on a bridge and we mention this <a href='https://youtu.be/mXTSnZgrfxM'>video of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge</a>, an example of what happens when the forces aren't fully taken into account.</p> <p> </p> <p>Alex also produces her own podcast - <a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7prF8CIaPN7ljlcquEoGtQ'>Embracing Diversity: Diversity Diaries</a> - all about how diverse engineering can be, how you can be an ally for diversity and celebrate our differences.</p> <p> </p> <p>Continue the conversation with Technically Speaking on Twitter <a href='https://twitter.com/TechnicallySp11'>@TechnicallySp11</a></p>
