This book describes some of the most incredible man-made structures on
earth. Vivid color photos, detailed models and cross-sections show
you how the structures were built and how they operate. Read about an
airport built in the middle of Osaka Bay, a modern roller coaster, a
nuclear reactor and more.

"They're not just structures, they're super structures! Structures that will
turn your world upside-down: from arenas to world class banks, from motor boats
to giant drills. This book shows you three dimensional diagrams. And, wow, did
you know how many different types of bridges there are? From every screw to
every nut, this book shows you everything." |
