We will not believe that such long and high-rise bridge in fractures are built by the human species over the seas and long rivers. The huge masterpiece construction of the current era you can see in Dubai, the Middle East where they have made Palm Jumeira inside the sea.
There are several situations where we have projects in or near the water, that could be natural lakes (while making water reservoirs, or dams), making the seaports. The other examples could be the long and high structures of bridges over the sea or rivers. Although, as an employer or top management, we use our best techniques and technology in the development and construction of such in fracture, hire competent professionals including health and safety and engineering. Even that very serious incidents and accidents occurs and people get injured or even leads to deaths by
