Abstract: |
The Chikugo River Bridge will cross the largest river in Kyushu, surrounding by a large number of important designated historical heritages of the country. They created regional landscapes with these natural scenes and historical inheritances. Thus, this bridge design was aimed at protecting these landscapes and raising their value. In this paper, we demonstrate the design technique, including aesthetic and technical aspects of the continuous arches as a new form in Japan, in order to solve the above mentioned concerns. |
