Abstract :
With the construction evolution and
consequent roads and railways progressive development,
emerged the need for the population to make crossings,
not only to overcome geographical obstacles, but also to
reduce the necessary travel time. However, one of the
major problems until today has been the crossing of
navigable waters. As one of the keys means of global
transport, server navigation could not be less important
than the construction of bridges, which would affect its
course. It was then necessary to find a solution that
would enable navigation of rivers and at the same time
their crossing. Since building bridges with adequate
clearance for the passage of ships required a more
elaborate work in terms of very high inclination,
movable bridges became the most viable solution to this
dilemma, despite all all the challenges on their design.
Nevertheless, movable bridges have not always had this
purpose. In the Middle Age, these were used for
protection against enemy's armies. The design of
movable bridges, have primary explored over the last
century the typical three types of movable bridges,
bascule; swing; and vertical lift. Regardless of this,
innovative solutions are increasingly taking form.
