bridge between the cities "GOROD" - "BRICKLEBERRY"

[sinful ruin]

Hi! I want to build a bridge between the cities "GOROD" - "BRICKLEBERRY".
I don’t understand how to do the project. I build without projects, determining the type of construction in the process. I can build it beautifully.

[upbeat current]

is it a federal highway?

[dark quarry]

I think it is.

[upbeat current]

Yeah it is

[dark quarry]

As I’m still working on the bridge on the west end of the island, here are a few pieces of advice I’ve learned.

1. “Realistic underwater structure is required. Wherever you place a foundation at sea level, you need to have that structure extended to the ocean’s floor. This also just can’t be un-encased towers of dirt.

2. The bottom of an ocean bridges need to be 13 blocks above sea level. This is just the bottom of the structure, not necessarily the road surface.

[upbeat current]

You can tackle this project. The requirements are stated above. You can also check their bridge for example

"advice" or "requirements"?

ok

[upbeat current]

White Tiger as special rules we need to follow for Deep Ocean Bridges

[sinful ruin]

Can I use my own design for the piers and bridge structure?

[upbeat current]

Yes

as long as it meets the basic requirements which is at least 10 blocks between supports and at least 13 blocks above sea level (this is to allow boat traffic)

there's also requirements on realistic building pieces and structure

[sinful ruin]

material - T4?

[dark quarry]

Reinforced concrete or Corrugated steel

Flat steel or Ashlar would also work, but I don’t think payment is in place for those.

[upbeat current]

If you want T5 We can talk with SoC

make it a cultural bridge

[vital bay]

T5 only pays out in the laser tower districts currently and I dont think the amount is set yet either

[upbeat current]

@sinful ruin Can you confirm you will takle the bridge?

[sinful ruin]

yes

[upbeat current]

Good news. Thank you!

[sinful ruin]

What do I need to do to start construction?

[dark quarry]

If it hasn’t already been applied, you’ll need the “Federal Engineer” title to actually build in the deep ocean. You’ll also want to make sure to barricade any access points until the bridge is completed, to prevent accidents.

For the structure itself, things just have to be realistic (above and below the waterline) and follow the minimum requirements that are in the in-game laws. Other than that, have fun.

I will note that when working in deep ocean, you only burn calories when moving, looking or some other action. Floating back to the surface does not cost calories, thankfully. You can eat in the water, so that should help if you get into trouble. I found I could get at least one dive in (to around lvl 25) before needing to eat.

[upbeat current]

Need title. Will give you it later today. At work

[dark quarry]

@sinful ruin What's your status on this project? We really need to get something done in the next 3-4 days to allow for a land connections between all the contienents.

[upbeat current]

ask apx they are also wanting to help

[dark quarry]

IG name?

@autumn herald You can add updates as well.

[sinful ruin]

The bridge is 95% complete. All that's left is to finish the support a bit and make a few cosmetic corrections. Traffic on the bridge is open.

[dark quarry]

I’m assuming you’re adding more realistic support structures to the bridge? When I checked it last night, it seemed to mostly be a “sky bridge”.

[autumn herald]

I built sky brigde, then we was waiting Zombie to finish supports
