Did you know?

Leonardo da Vinci created the concept of the self supporting bridge more than 500 years ago, supposedly after the idea of the ancient Chinese „Rainbow Bridge”. The reneissance master designed the easy to assemble structure as a last resort for soldiers to cross a river. The assembly does not need any special skills or tools, because, when assembled correctly, the bridge holds itself together. Leonardo named his invention the „Bridge of Safety”, because under pressure the braced members interlock and hold even tighter.
