A bridge in the world famous area of Queen's College, Cambridge. Its official propaganda is "The Wood Bridge". Many boards make up the bridge. The famous version that Newton built it is actually a rumor. The scenery around the bridge is really beautiful.

    Mathematical Bridge is a bridge in the city of Cambridge, England, which crosses the River of Cambridge University campus, connecting Queen's College on both sides of the River of Cambridge, between Trinity College and Trinity College. Mathematical Bridge is its unofficial name, its official name is simply "wood bridge." The Mathematical Bridge was designed by William Etheridge II and built by James Essex in 1749. The Mathematical Bridge was rebuilt in 1866 and 1905, but the original design did not change. The bridge has now been replaced by a new bridge, with the arrangement of the wooden bars forming an arc, supporting the bridge, and other transverse components forming a triangular structure to hold the bridge. The structure here effectively uses wood without wasting, while borrowing the arch design common to stone bridges, consolidating its structure. However, there are several sources of mathematical bridge design: 1. The bridge is designed by China, and some special mathematical equations are used in the design, because the name of the mathematical bridge is obtained. 2, the bridge is designed by the general students, the design of the bridge (weight and angle number) is very precise, even a nail is not used, a professor saw the bridge after the breathtaking, and wanted to remove the bridge to understand the design of the bridge. However, after the professor removed the bridge, there was no way to use the original design to rebuild the bridge, so the professor used nails to rebuild the bridge. The bridge was designed and built by Newton, and as the second legend, his design did not use the last nail, the students saw the design of the bridge and removed the bridge, but there was no way to rebuild it. But this is not true because Newton died 22 years before the bridge was built.

    Spanning the river cam and bridging 2 parts of Queen's College. The Bridge, originally called Wooden Bridge has quite a story behind it and how it was built.

    When I arrived at Cambridge University, I naturally had to go to this math bridge to punch in. Why? Learning science and engineering, of course, I was impressed by the science and engineering class. Maybe I saw the bypass and Mao Suiton.

    If you take a cruise, you will pass the bridge, which is very beautiful in mathematics and geometry, but it is actually just a bridge, just punch a card.

    The Mathematical Bridge, also known as the Newton Bridge, is said to have been designed and built by the great mathematician Newton while teaching at Cambridge University. It shows the prototype of the modern steel beam bridge, and the design between the bridge's adjacent trusses is called geometric structure, so it is named the "Mathematical Bridge". Simple and historic, worth visiting!

    A very interesting engineering work.

    Legend has it that the Mathematics Bridge was designed and built by Newton without any nuts or bolts. Some students tried to dismantle the bridge and reassemble it, but they couldn't assemble it after dismantling. They had to fix it again with nuts and bolts. It's just a legend. It's actually a design by William Sirlich.
