Does it sound interesting for you to test yourself as an engineer? It means to analyse, plan and create some constructions, checking your abilities to assess your projections in the correct way and realize them. Not many people possess these qualities. Also, there are many who are able to create perfect constructions, but don't suspect about their abilities.

The program Bridge Construction Set gives you a splendid opportunity to know better about your hidden talents and spend your time in a captivating way.

Bridge Construction Set, as it is clear from the title of this program, is devoted entirely to the building bridges. There are some main stages of this process.

Firstly, you plan and create the model of your future bridge. In order to do it you can use different materials, such as deck, iron, steel and so on. Your constructions may be various and impressive, but it is not the most important thing, because it doesn't mean that your bridge will pass the tests.

So, having finished the first step you move on to the other, the stimulation of the construction. You watch whether your bridge is stable enough not to be destroyed under the heaviness of its construction. Then, cars or a steam test your bridge, passing over it to demonstrate how the bridge holds up under pressure. If when test vehicles pass over your bridge, they make it safely across you know you've succeeded. If there are some problems you come back to your construction to correct its design. But it is also a fun to see how the bridge breaks and cars plunge into the river.

At the same time, you can regard your building and its environment from any angle, rising, moving away and approaching to it, including a first person train view. It looks like you drive the car or train, which is testing the bridge. A very exiting view I should say!

The 3D graphics of Bridge Construction Set let you build a wide variety of bridges that can span the river, comprising many types of bridge building levels of various degrees of difficulty from simple to complex with a tutorial level to start with. A Level Editor is also presented, so you can create your own levels and trade them with others.

In conclusion, I'd like to say that this program can be of interest for people of different ages, including children, whom it helps developing their spatial reasoning.
