Bridges Before Steel: Pre-Industrial Marvels | Mega Bridges | FD Engineering
Iron Bridges - Built to Last for Centuries: https://youtu.be/i8eIt0fVSVE
Whether arch, beam or suspension bridge: For thousands of years, people have been building connections for pedestrians, cars or trains over natural obstacles such as water or gorges. In the past it was simple stone buildings, today gigantic steel structures like the Örsesund Bridge are created to connect Denmark with Sweden. In each episode one of these modern buildings is presented.
From the first log thrust over a divide, bridges have united us, facilitating our need to explore and our desire to extend our mastery of physics. In this episode, we look at bridges built by pre-industrial societies around the globe.

Forging the World: How Fire Shapes Human Progress | Masters of Engineering | FD Engineering
Explosive Engineers - Having a Blast at the Job: https://youtu.be/t3XTxPwiHkE
Lightning strikes the planet a hundred times every second. The fires it unleashes were once like gifts from heaven for early man. Indeed, the need to domesticate fire, to master it, to possess it, has set the pace for mankind's progress. Capable of heating, cooking, lighting, melting, forging, carrying or propelling, fire has been the instrument of every conquest.
From prehistoric fires to the furnaces of the first blacksmiths, from the first steam engines to the flames of the future, this film invites us to travel back in time and explore a thousand-year-old history that made mankind the masters of fire.

MSC Divina: Operating a Luxury City on the Ocean | FD Engineering
Oasis of the Seas - The Giant That Changed Cruising Forever: https://youtu.be/rPWWmMmYD4M
A Cruise through Hurricane Season This sold-out cruise poses many challenges: shuttling an entire shipload of passengers ashore on small boats with the ship anchored out in the harbour; organizing on-shore tours for 1500 to 2000 guests; getting everyone back a board in time - not to mention the task of entertaining and feeding them all on board the ship. For the Captain, there are greater concerns: sudden winds that can push MSC Divina off course in tight harbours, changeable currents that force him to execute approaches to the dock that he has never before attempted; and worst of all, a brewing tropical disturbance that might close the last port - forcing the ship to ride out the potential hurricane at sea.

Megastructures - Modern Architectural Marvels: https://youtu.be/tEm_H280JLc
The world-renowned Tower that bears his name is not the only structure designed by Gustave Eiffel. By inventing innovative solutions and techniques, he started an architectural revolution that allowed building ones of the most beautiful constructions of the past century.
Throughout the world, he has constructed bridges, railways, viaducts and also train stations. The emergence of metallurgy has metamorphosed the industry and the creations. Due to the lightness and the flexibility of the material, he will be the creator of ever higher and more complex structures.
This film highlights Eiffel’s most remarkable mega structures around the world.
