Abstrait: |
The present paper outlines important aspects of the collaboration in interdisciplinary bridge de- sign teams, using some of the authors’ recent successful projects as illustrative examples. It is em- phasized that design competitions have significantly contributed to the fact that in Switzerland – contrary to international tendencies – hardly any sculptural, inefficient and excessively expensive bridges were built over the past decades, while aesthetic criteria and innovative approaches are appreciated even in the design of minor bridges and civil engineering structures. |
