Bridge Model Inspires Young Engineers | Cincinnati News
Description
Check out this cool bridge model now on display at the Cincinnati Museum Center—yes, it’s the Brent Spence Companion Bridge, scaled down but packed with engineering secrets. Engineers tested it in a wind tunnel to see how it handles river gusts and traffic winds, even before construction finishes. Project manager Tommy Arnold says it’s vital to know how the bridge holds up during its most vulnerable phase—and he’s thrilled kids, including his own, will get a front-row seat to the science behind the steel. This isn’t just a model—it’s a mission to spark curiosity in STEM and show how massive infrastructure is built with brains, not just brawn. If you’re nearby, go see the future of engineering up close.
