Any plans to bridge the San Bernardino Strait?

[Fabio]

nice bridges I just don't like much of the 3rd one.

[WANCH]

To me, the most interesting one is the Quezon Bridge where Gustav Eiffel (the same guy who built the Eiffel Tower in Paris) was the engineer :)

Was the San Juanico Bridge able to hold the title as the longest bridge in Asia or Southeast Asia for a period of time?

Was the San Juanico Bridge able to hold the title as the longest bridge in Asia or Southeast Asia for a period of time?

it is the longest bridge in SEA from 1979 to 1985....penang bridge in malaysia is now the longest bridge in SEA..

but THE SAN JUANICO BRIDGE is the longest rail-carrying span bridge in the world

San Juanico and Quezon Bridges look really nice...

[ivanhenares]

To me, the most interesting one is the Quezon Bridge where Gustav Eiffel (the same guy who built the Eiffel Tower in Paris) was the engineer :)

Maybe not. I was reading Manolo Noche's article on bridges. This is what he says:

"The third to be built spanning the Pasig was the Puente de Convalecencia or better known as the Ayala Bridge, originally composed of two separate spans connected by the Isla de Convalecencia, which is home to Hospisio de San Jose, dropping point for abandoned babies, the bridge over this island was originally made of wooden arched trusses. Completed in 1880, it suffered major structural damage and completely collapsed 10 years later. This was subsequently replaced with a simple metal saw trussed bridge in the last decade of the 19th century, though not significant for its design, its engineer nevertheless is important in the annals of Philippine history, for it was the only bridge that the famed French Engineer by the name of Gustave Eiffel built in the country. This bridge, famous for its engineer or otherwise, similarly didn’t last long and was subsequently replaced."

Agas-Agas Bridge Rope Jumping

Similar to bungee jumping, one jumps from a high structure tied to a rope set up in a way that the jumper goes on a free fall for a few seconds then goes into a pendulum swing.
