The bridge industry is moving toward mechanized construction. If you want to excel as a bridge designer, to become the means & methods guru in your agency, firm or organization; or to prepare your students for the trans-disciplinary nature of modern bridge engineering, you need a solid background in bridge construction technology.

• Bridge owners make technology decisions within design-bid-build projects and score the quality, durability and lifecycle cost of design-build proposals.
• Bridge designers explore new and emerging technology and modern construction methods throughout the process from teaming interview and value engineering to the pre- and post-award design.
• Bridge constructors increase win rate and profitability and mitigate risk with technology that saves costs, shortens project duration and improves safety and quality.
• Bridge educators acquire feedback on modern construction technology to prepare new generations of bridge engineers for the challenges of our profession.
• Suppliers of materials, technology and services develop trans-disciplinary culture to interact with other business lines of the industry and explore commercial synergies.

BridgeTech offers a unique program of continuing education for bridge engineers. It includes on-site courses (1 and 2 days), books, eManuals, a Bridge Club hosting a rich collection of exclusive articles and free publications, and a Newsletter that reaches 18000 bridge engineers in every corner of the world. BridgeTech World, our LinkedIn forum, enjoys the participation of 8000 fellow members.

BridgeTech also hosts the Bridge Industry, a searchable collection of articles, images, downloadable documents, special hyperlinks and contact info of 2000 selected bridge owners, designers, constructors, educators and providers of materials, technology and services. Access to the Bridge Club, the Bridge Industry and the Newsletter is totally free.

Led by a renowned bridge engineer and researcher with 37 years of professional experience in 21 countries, the audience of BridgeTech amply exceeds 50000 bridge owners, designers and construction professionals.
