Aecom engineer designs Lego suspension bridge

  ENR 선정 세계 1위 설계회사 에이콤(Aecom)의 엔지니어 로빈 샴박사가 세계 최대의 레고 교량을 

만들어 기네스북에 올랐다.

Guinness World Record-breaking suspension bridge made entirely out of Lego. 

순전히 레고로만 만들어진 이 현수교량의 길이는 31m로 런던의 영국토목기술협회(ICE)에 

교량전시센터에 전시된다.

교량의 높이가 3m로 길이는 런던의 명물인  빨간 루트마스터 이층버스 정류장의  3배에 달한다.

총무게는 750kg로 20만개의 레고 블록으로 만들어졌다.

Aecom engineer Dr Robin Sham has designed a Guinness World Record-breaking suspension bridge made entirely out of Lego.

The 31 metre-long bridge is on display at the centre of the Bridge Engineering exhibition at the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) in London.

The bridge stands over three metres tall and spans almost the equivalent of three London Routemaster buses parked end to end.

The structure weighs three-quarters of a tonne and is made up of over 200,000 individual plastic bricks.

Dr Robin Sham, global long span and speciality bridges director, Aecom, said: “Bridges connect people and places, both physically and emotionally. The ICE’s visionary LEGO Bridge project connects civil engineers with the public, demonstrating the monumental accomplishments of civil engineering. Using familiar LEGO bricks to demystify and showcase the extraordinary feats of engineers, I hope the next generation will be inspired to consider engineering as a career.”
