2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT Evaluators Input:
Introduction: A bridges is a structure that supplies passage over obstacle such as valleys, rough terrain or
bodies of water by cover those obstacles with natural or man-made materials. But the bridges are critical
transportation links that carry road. When a bridges collapse it can cause problem in traffic and mostly people
live on an island will stand altogether. Todays the ultimate weather events are causing more flood-related
damage to bridges and its causing to wash away the foundation and structural elements to break apart.
Accidents are one of the leading reasons to damage the bridges or come down. Other bridges have no river
what is the purpose for it.
This documentary will emphasize the important lesson for bridge designers. It will be
interesting because we tackle not only the reasons why bridges damaged happen but also the improvement of
this project. We will include brief interviews with random citizens and public workers.

RATIONALE Evaluators Input:

This study is important because there are many bridges failure that government cant see or they have no
action about this issue. Thru this study government will be aware about bridges failure and they can find
solution and they will make action about this.
