Zubizuri

The Zubizuri (Basque for "white bridge"), also called the Campo Volantin Bridge or Puente del Campo Volantin, is a tied arch footbridge across the Nervion River in Bilbao, Spain. Designed by architect Santiago Calatrava, the bridge links the Campo Volantin right bank and Uribitarte left bank of the river. The floor of the bridge is made of glass and that shows that is possible to build a resistant structure with a weak material. The main problem of the glass is that makes the floor too slippy when it rains.
