Seminar on pre-designed bridges by Mario Guisasola, London Friday 10th June


My London-based readers may be interested in this seminar, organised by the Imperial College CivSoc, which takes place from 12-1pm, Friday 10th June, Room 207, Skempton Building, Imperial College, London.

Mario founded design firm Anta IC in 2003, and has designed a number of geometrically interesting and innovative bridges. such as the example depicted above. These are all bridges where the formal geometry is derived from consideration of the span's internal forces, and I've been hoping for some time they'll get some greater attention, so this is a good opportunity to find out more about them - there's also plenty of information on the Anta IC website.
