Engineering The World's Longest Suspension Bridge Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июн 2024
- The Strait of Messina Bridge, once complete, will become the longest single-span suspension bridge. This ambitious project will take 6 years to complete and aims to connect Sicily to mainland Italy and Europe. However, this project has its own unique challenges; the bridge will be subject to high winds and earthquakes that have never been witnessed at a bridge site before. From the design to the construction process, we will uncover the fascinating details behind this ambitious project. Whether you're a bridge enthusiast, an engineering student, or simply curious about large-scale infrastructure, this video will provide you with a captivating insight into the world of civil engineering. Don't miss out on this in-depth look at the Strait of Messina Bridge and the marvels of modern engineering!
I’m confident the final price will be closer to $20B 😅
I like your animations but your audio volume is far too low. I had to raise my tablets' volume to almost maximum in order to hear you. PLEASE Raise your microphones recording levels. Your background music was almost louder than you, and it was not playing at a high volume.
Great video. Did you make the 3d model yourself?
Yes
@@youngheroengineer on which software. Its so amazing
Blender
@@youngheroengineer Thanks. And really appreciated. I want to learn it also. If possible you can share from which website we can learn
@@youngheroengineer thank you, as a sicilian and engineering student i've never seen such an accurate model!
nice informations, graphic in video and video itself 🙂 but the sound... sounds more on the left channel than right and is hissing sometimes or how to explain it, hope you understand me, but you WILL get better 🙂take care
It is always something. Trying to build a much needed bridge to withstand regular earthquake threat. Is indeed a geographical problem to solve. As in North America to build an international bridge when private owner of another bridge did not wish it to become reality.
It is a suspension bridge; it is automatically earthquake resistant.
Please make a video on Irish sea crossing
A suspension bridge is automatically resistant to earthquakes. In fact, it is basically a non-issue
Are you an engineer?
Hard to believe this distance could be covered in one span! Seems like the sort of thing a Chinese company would do.
And I don't know much about the area, but it could help the economy of Sicily a lot! It is well know that Italy has large economic differences between the wealthy North and the poorer South.
Oh, I made my comment before I got to the bit when you talked about helping the economy of the South!
Actually, the bridge will be built by Webuild, which is an Italian company.
@@youngheroengineer
Yes - but it looks like the sort of thing a Chinese company would do. That's why I was surprised! ;-)
We don't do big projects much in Europe any more. Here in the UK, if we try, we fail, or we give up half way. That's why it looks like a Chinese thing, but in fact it is an Italian thing. Hope they do it - good for the Italians!
@@ZachariahJUK had the longest rail system in the world. it used to be the best.
But can it be built well and up to standards? Will it be in time and within the budget?
Maybe 20 years ago, sure.
Hmm 🤔 good point
It's hard to say until they hit the ground running.
@@youngheroengineer will they hire genuinely competent people for this operation? Or just check a bunch of political checkboxes?
@@akumaking1the company assigned to do the job is webuild, an italian megaprojects company, the best in the world
Are you sure this isn't just an enormous prank? The satellite view looks like a rock chipping tied with string to the toe of a boot; and that begs a question concerning the cost, how long is the piece of string
Looks like the technical details have been thought out and it's ready to go.
I be concerned about Mafia involvement. It would only take substandard materials being used in one area to render the whole thing an expensive piece of junk.
The mafia meddled with the construction of the MOSE dam that protects Venice, and it had several cost and time overruns, investigations and also arrests of people involved with the project. And we all know how it turned out. This bridge is needed (along with HS railway to Sicily and decent motorways and railways not only in Sicily but in Sardinia and Calabria as well), but the quality of Italian politics is worrisome. I think it's the less ethical leading class we've ever had since the end of the economic boom.
I wouldn't suggest [this] Model.
this is amazing. Why can't the US have this kind of design?
There are longer bridges than this and bridges capable of surviving earthquakes just as violent.
@@pikedriver okay then
Dumb politicians and the consultant capture
@@GamingBrenhe coping
@@pikedriverumm were you even paying attention?
The actual project is mote than 15 year old, they find a new error in the project there isn t enough hight for the bigger ship
Errore ... Il progetto è stato rinnovato con il progetto definitivo realizzato quest' anno ... L errore che non passono attraversarlo le navi di grande altezza è stato smentito dall azienda di progettazione stessa
At 0:18 you say this will be "the world's longest bridge". That's ridiculous. I used to live in a town that had not one, but _two_ bridges longer than this. I'm not trying to take away from the impressiveness of this bridge, but you need to check your text more carefully next time.
Yeah he should have specified "single span". He does it later tho
bro as an Italian i can say barley anyway wants this bridge in italy, but politicians want to make it just to appear as good politicians, we cannot make it ad if we do it will fall (it already happend with the ponte morandi) also they want to build it in the poorer part of italy, they could use the money to renew citys and services also there is mafia there (ndrangheta and cosa nostra)
Quindi?
Dovremmo smettere di costruire infrastrutture al sud per le mafie?
Inoltre,solo perché un ponte è crollato,non significa che dovremmo smettere di costruire ponti.
In Cina e in america sono crollati dei ponti,ma non mi sembra che abbiano smesso di costruirli.
10,827 feet is around 2 miles. IDK if that’s the worlds longest bridge.
I think it means longest single span with no supports in between
It will be the longest suspension bridge by a long shot, about 50% longer than the second longest
You are brainless
I remember mafia set bombs under roads...
No, now mafia set their managers in building company and government
Wouldn’t build a tunnel beneath the strait been easier?
clearly you watched like, 5 minutes of the video 😐
Too deep and it'd have to pass through a fault line
Why not just add pillars under bridge, then slope at the curve and use land as road(it create slowdown at bridge to be slower). Looks bridge can swing. This was spoken before in the past I wonder why it is being created like this. Is it about success of a plot? To create writing like this to exist?
等建好再說啦，而且義大利有能力建嗎？或是又找他國來幫忙啊？
Just ask china
2 lanes? That’s not even remotely future proof
So?Here in sicily highways are with two lanes, what's the sense of build a bridge's Road bigger than the highways that Will conect?
And the central train line can move more people more effectly than the cars
@@Lorre982 yes that’s good at least
@@Mænü56 because you can just add another lane later down the line to the other parts
@@Mænü56 what I would have done is only have 2 lanes open for now but I would have left space on each side of the road for a new lane sometime in the future
12 bln. It's much more than today Italy can afford. And that project will be graved in italian government, because they think about "atlantic solidarity", "EU prestige", "democracy spreading", not about traffic infrastructure.
12 bln spread over 6 years is nothing for Italy, it's the risk of mafia infiltrations and corruption (besides the whole "we could be spending those billions on the extreme South's shitty highways and railways" argument)
@@Hastdupech8509 "The Italian government recorded a budget deficit of EUR 149.5 billion in 2023, equivalent to 7.2% of the GDP. "
Well, 2 billons per year is really nothing, when budget deficit is already 75 times greater...
3 Km? The Bridge between Rio de Janeiro and Niterói has 13 Km, 8 of them above the sea. The longest in the world? Come on....
You didn't even see the video, only just comment the title. I'ts the longest bridge in one span: over 3 Km between the two pillars.
Look brainess: IT WILL BE THE LONGEST SUSPENSION BRIDGE
