Abstract

An important factor in Europe’s development process is the transportation system. “Design and build” projects allow the implementation of efficient, economical, and also modern structures. The present paper presents a quick overview of newly designed and executed structures in Romania. These bridge solutions combine many important aspects: reduced costs, fast and simple erection, modularity, durability and robustness, low maintenance costs, and an appealing aesthetical aspect.
