inscriptions. Renaissance engineers had learned much about foundations since Roman times, though they rarely were able to excavate deeply enough to reach hard strata. They had, however, perfected techniques of spread footings - wide timber grillages resting on piles driven into the river bed upon which stone piers were laid. In the foundation of the Rialto Bridge, designer Antonio da Ponte drove six thousand timber piles, capped by three stepped grillages so that the abutment stones could be laid perpendicular to the thrust lines of the arch. Though built on soft alluvial soils, the bridge continues to support a street of jewellery shops enjoyed by tourists four centuries later. The end of the Italian Renaissance witnessed a new vision of bridge construction. More than merely utilitarian, bridges were designed as elegant, grand passage-ways that were part of the visual

They did not use the model regularly, but did consult it from time to time to obtain detailed product and process information concerning their work, particularly where drawings were not clear and questions arose. 9.8.4.5 Rebar detailing, fabrication and installation Modelling the bridge reinforcement turned out to be more difficult than was anticipated. Bridges of this type (cable stayed) have a high density of reinforcement and complex deck and abutment shapes, which makes the modelling more difficult and time consuming than for simpler structures. In most common reinforced concrete structures, building elements such as beams, columns and foundations are sufficiently standard in shape and reinforcement details to allow the use of parametric objects and rebar layouts that greatly accelerate modeling; bridge elements have unique geometries due to curvatures, which often require that they, and their reinforcement layouts, be 'custom' modeled.
