This is a very technical application directed at students of Civil Engineering. All students and teachers in this discipline will be able to learn from Model Bridge. It is an educational software to make it easier to learn and comprehend the behaviour of bridges.



With Model Bridge you can design and create your own bridges, selecting all the elements and structures needed and placing them where you see fit. You can experiment with all types of techniques, and learn how they are built. You will also know which are the necessary materials during the whole process, what is their capacity for resistence, and how things can be improved.



The program has two areas or processes clearly differentiated: building bridges, and testing them. In the first you can build from zero or modify an existing design. In the second you check for strength, stability and the maximum limits and values your bridge can withstand.



Model Bridge is easy to use as the interface is similar to Windows. You won´t find anything you haven´t seen before. It also lets you personalize your design with a wide range of options: height, length, weight, materials, etc. And the best of all is that it adapts perfectly to the user, whether student or professional.
