Designing a Bridge – Bilingual English Listening Practice (A1–C2)

 




Carlos is an engineer working on a new bridge. He draws up a plan in his office, then heads out to the river to check out the site. Back at his desk, he uses a computer to run the calculations. Once he’s done, he goes over the details with his team and feels proud of the work they’ve accomplished.

Carlos is part of a team working on a bridge design over a river. First, they look at the terrain and take measurements. Then, they build a model on the computer. Carlos checks out the materials and talks things through with the other engineers. Before construction gets underway, they double-check all the calculations to make sure everything’s right.


Carlos leads a team of engineers working on the design of a modern bridge. They use specialized software to simulate how strong the materials are. They look at different structural options and figure out the maximum load the bridge can handle. During a meeting, they go over the final design with the architects. Before construction kicks off, they run tests to make sure the structure is safe and stable.


Carlos oversees the structural design of a steel bridge. His team works out the forces that will act on the structure and chooses the best materials for the job. To fine-tune the design, they run simulations using 3D modeling software. During a site inspection, they spot some possible geotechnical issues. After making a few adjustments, they team up with foundation specialists to make sure the bridge has a solid base and can hold up under extreme conditions.


Carlos leads the construction project of a suspension bridge in a seismic zone. His team looks into how the structure interacts with wind forces using computational fluid dynamics. During the planning phase, they assess the environmental impact and work on using sustainable materials more efficiently. In a technical review, they lay out strategies to boost the bridge’s seismic resistance without messing with its aesthetics or structural performance.


Carlos, an experienced structural engineer, designs a high-tech bridge using advanced materials like carbon fiber and smart alloys. He studies how the bridge holds up under dynamic loads and runs simulations to see how it reacts to temperature changes. At an international conference, he presents his research on using AI to optimize structural design. He reflects on how modern engineering is pushing the limits of what’s possible in design and functionality.
