How i wish too

It's a Leonardo Da Vinci's project, self supporting bridge

No. this technique is much older than Leonardo da Vinci and was develloped and first used in ancient China.

@@udorechner6846 Would it be feasible that Leonardo da Vinci sketched the idea based on descriptions of Marco Polo? While the two weren't contemporaries by any means (Polo was dead well over 125 years before da Vinci was born), we know da Vinci was able to read and write, so would have been able to feasibly read works made by Polo (Who as a merchant I presume to have also been able to write, I know it may be a stretch, but still) when da Vinci lived and worked in Venice. Being the inveterate tinkerer that da Vinci was, I can sort of imagine him reading of such a bridge and how it were built in Polo's works and asking himself how that were done, and then try and duplicate it. I'm also sketchy about such an idea not existing in Europe before da Vinci thought of it. We don't know a lot about what medieval Man knew (ie, their level of knowledge), but given that nails were expensive, and all manner of joinery is quite literally older than civilisation (look at Primitive Technology (the youtube channel) for what I mean there, it's feasible that Stone Age man also knew the techniques he uses) I would consider it dubious that something like a self supporting bridge wasn't known before da Vinci thought of it.

Thanks for your support

I imagine doing that alone standing in a slightly wider and hip deep creek... I guess it just needs at least a 2nd person, no matter how skilled you are.

It reminds me of the Philippines where my mom came from. Build anything out of nothing

In 2017 i went to the Philippines and first hand i got to see this guy who had been making butterfly knifes for over 20 years make a knife in front of me. Using all kinds of junk from scrap and turning them into very impressive handmade knifes with less tools than me a 16 year old. I thought it was amazing but unfortunately its a dieing art over there because the younger people are not interested in it. If i didnt live in America i know what i would be doing. Although i dont speak tagalog my mom and grandmother could probably teach me

Honestly some day when i retire i may go over there to live. Couple thousand over here is alot over there.

This is not a Chinese concept, it is a model of Da Vinci’s Self Supporting Bridge which is found in his notes from the 16th century in Italy.

​@@birlove1471 ​​​It's also a traditional Chinese method. Just because Da Vinci wrote something similar on his notes, it doesn't mean that the method traditionally already used by Chinese isn't "Chinese" anymore. Self-supporting bridge is something that the Chinese independently thought of. Just like some mathematical theories that are found in Chinese texts that are actually pythagoras theorem. It is believed that Chinese thinkers at the time also thought of it independently. You have to realize that technical methods like this are not like "artistic originality." Artistic originality is something that is very unlikely to be independently thought of by two separate nations without contact. That's because it heavily involves taste of art and creativity. But technical methods such as bridge building or early technologies, are ways that are thought of by logic and critical thinking. It was figured by people to make things easier for practical purposes. Unlike artistic originality, early technical methods like this are quite likely to be thought of independently by separate nations without contact.

This is just an Archimedes Bridge. Archimedes invented this bridge design over 2,200 years ago.
