[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 669465, member: 176362"] If you have any interest in engineering, or have kids you want to keep amused for an hour with an educational game have a look at this software: -http://bridgecontest.usma.edu/ You get to design your own bridge, then if it survives its own weight you run a simulation of a truck over it to see if the bridge is suitable. I was exceedingly pleased with myself when I designed a bridge where the truck nosedived into the river during the simulation when the road deck gave way half way across! :-rofl2 :eek: :D [/QUOTE]
