Abstract:
In this article we describe the design and construction of the bridge now known as Pont de l?Assut de l?Or, but during its construction as Puente de l Serreria. It?s a design from Santiago Calatrava, located in Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias, Valencia, Spain. As in other Works of the same author, original architectural design goes together with singular structural concepts: one single stayed span without back or side spans, a curved pylon stayed back only at its top.
