Abstract

The bridges and overpasses of the city of Samara are considered, their main characteristics are identifi ed. A brief historical background of the appearance of the fi rst bridges as simple engineering structures is given, the main temporary periods are highlighted. Examples of implemented solutions that characterize the main stages of the history of bridge construction are given: the Hohenzollern Bridge in Cologne, the Millennium Bridge in Gateshead, the Ponte Vecchio Bridge in Florence, the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, the Russian Bridge in Vladivostok, the String Bridge in Jerusalem. The analysis helps to understand how a modern bridge, located in the city building system, aff ects it, complements and enriches it, combines many functions and advanced technologies, and also has architectural expressiveness.
