Tunnels are usually made of metal and concrete. One of the longest tunnels in the world is the Seikan Tunnel in Japan. It's nearly 54 kilometers long! It goes between two islands. It was built because it's too dangerous to travel by boat.The tunnel is for trains, but now many people prefer to travel by plane. One of the longest road tunnels is the Laerdal Tunnel in Norway. The tunnel is nearly 25 kilometers long and it goes through a mountain. It was built because there's too much snow on the mountain roads in winter. Bridges go over water or overground. On a beam bridge, the pillars carry the deck. One of the longest beam bridges is the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in the USA. This bridge is about 38 kilometers long and it has over 91000 concrete pillars. It goes over water and carries road traffic. 0 On a suspension l-rridge, the cables and towers carry the deck. 'l'hc anchorages hold thc cabl es. Suspension bridges move a little when it's windy. ' l ' hi s i sn' t usual l y a probl em, but i n 1940 the 'lbcoma Bridge in the USA collapsed in light winds. It was onlv four months old. Go to pages 26-27 for activities. !a .:'&,lir' ifEt{:4rireHIEI: . -' t \(Ihen there isn't much ground, we can build tall buildings. Very tall buildings are called skyscrapers. The first skyscraper was the Home Insurance Building. It was built in Chicago in the USA i n 1885. It was 42 meters tall. The tallest skyscrapers are now much taller than this. The Petronas TWin Towers in I(uala Lumpur in Malaysia are the tallest twin buildings. There is a bridge between the two towers called a skybridge. One of the tallest skyscrapers is the Burj Dubai.. It's in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. It' s 818 meters tal l - that' s nearly a kilometer! It's made of a special, strong concrete called reinforced concrete. The Burj Dubai has apartments' shops, swimming pools, hotels, restaurants, and a librarY. It's like a very tall town! Do you like it?
