Great Belt Brigde ( Storebæltsbroen / Danish )
Claus V. Holmberg
The Eastern Bridge
Built between 1991 and 1998, the Eastern Bridge (Østbroen) is a road suspension bridge between Halsskov and Sprogø. It is 6,790 metres (22,277 ft) long with a free span of 1,624 metres (5,328 ft), making it the world's second largest suspension bridge, surpassed only by the Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge in Japan. The vertical clearance for ships is 65 metres (213 ft). At 254 metres (833 ft) above sea level, the two pylons of the Eastern Bridge are the highest points on solid structures in Denmark. (Only some radio masts as Tommerup transmitter are taller).
To keep the main cables tensioned, an anchorage structure on each side of the span is placed below the road deck. Additionally, a total of 19 concrete pillars (12 on the Zealand side, 7 by Sprogø), each separated by a distance of 193 metres (633 ft), carry the road deck outside the span.
The Western Bridge
The Western Bridge (Vestbroen) is a box girder bridge between Sprogø and Knudshoved. It is 6,611 metres (21,690 ft) long, and has a vertical clearance for ships of 18 metres (59 ft). It is essentially two separate, adjacent bridges above water. The northern one carries rail traffic and the southern one carries road traffic. However, the pillars of the two bridges rest on common foundations below sea level. The Western Bridge was built between 1988 and 1994; its road/rail deck comprises 63 sections, supported by 62 pillars.
The tunnel
The twin bored tunnel tubes of the Eastern Tunnel (Østtunnelen) are 8 kilometres (5 mi) long each. Between the two main tunnels 31 connecting tunnels were placed at 250 metres (820 ft) intervals. The equipment that is necessary for train operation in the tunnels is installed in the connecting tunnels. The connecting tunnels also serve as emergency escape routes.
During construction of the tunnels, the sea bed gave way and one of the tunnel pipes was flooded. The water continued to rise and reached the end at Sprogø, where it continued into the (still dry) other tunnel pipe. The water thus destroyed two of the four drilling machines, but no workers were injured. Only by drilling refrigeration hoses down into the sea bed and freezing the bottom was it possible to dry out the pipes, remove the defunct machines and complete the drilling from the Zealand side.

The base of the Dutch windmill, is usually built in the form of an octagon.
The windmill of the Dutch type, has a wooden base which is higher, and is covered with
overlapping boards, which are tarred or painted.
The cap is turned in the top of the mill, without interfering with the transmission, from the
wind shaft to the scoop wheel.
To make this possible, a heavy hollow wooden post is made, about which the top can
turn; through this post the shaft is passed.
The Ground Mill, the mill itself is not particularly tall, but it stands on, or rather in, an -
artificial - mound.
The base up to the first floor, is built entirely into it, and the surrounding ground thus has
the same function as the stage in tall mills.
Parts of the mound are dug away to give access to the large loading doors in the base, through which the horse and cart can enter, and leave the mill on the opposite side.

Poul Hattens
The Windmill from Maderup was erected in the Funen Village to represent the many windmills that dotted the landscape of Funen. Windmills were positioned on an elevated point in the landscape away from shelter in the form of trees or buildings in order to make best use of the power of the wind. This special position made the windmills a prominent feature of the cultural landscape, especially in the second half of the 19th century, when the number of Dutch windmills in particular increased dramatically once the repeal of the law requiring freedom of trade in foodstuffs allowed anyone to set themselves up as a miller.

Frank Sørensen & Claus V. holmberg
Masnedsund Bridge (Danish, Masnedsundbroen) is a road and railway bascule bridge that crosses Masnedsund between the islands Masnedø and Zealand (Sjælland) in Denmark.
Together with Storstrøm Bridge it connects Falster and Zealand and was the main road connection between the islands until the Farø Bridges were opened in 1985. It was officially opened on August 6, 1937, and replaced an older railway bridge that was opened on January 15, 1884, and a ferry. The new bridges were commissioned by the Danish state railways (De Danske Statsbaner) and designed by them with assistance from Christiani and Nielsen A/S of Copenhagen. Construction was by Dorman Long and company, with Christiani and Nielsen acting as sub-contractors responsible for foundations and reinforced concrete sections. The contract for the work was signed on 13 May 1933.
The bridge is 201 metres long and 8.8 metres wide, with main span of 25 metres. It rests on five piers, with abutments at either end. One of the piers contains the machinery for operating the bascule. Each pier has concrete foundations set into the bed of the sea. A cofferdam was placed around each pier site, before excavating and then filling with concrete. After the base slab had been laid, the cofferdams could be emptied of water and the rest of the pier was constructed. Timber piles were used for the construction of the abutment foundations, and to reinforce one of the piers.
On December 12, 1935 an English steam ship ran into the old Masnedsund Bridge, and destroyed part of it. At that time the new bridge was being built, and it was decided to hasten the building. The railway part of the new bridge was opened on December 22, 1935.

The Old Little Belt Bridge
Claus Vendelboe Holmberg
The Little Belt Bridge (Gamle Lillebæltsbro), also known as The Old Little Belt Bridge, is a truss bridge over the Little Belt strait in Denmark. The first bridge to have been constructed over the strait, it spans from Snoghøj on Jutland to Kongebrogaarden on Funen. It is owned by the state and Banedanmark, the Danish railway authority, is responsible for its maintenance. The bridge was the first step in linking the three parts of Denmark by road, with the second step completed with the Great Belt Bridge in June 1998; previously, only boats and later ferries had been used to transport people over the belts.
Construction of the bridge began in 1929 and it was opened for traffic on May 14, 1935. It is 1,178 metres long, 20.5 metres wide and 33 metres high. On the bridge there are two railway tracks, two narrow lanes for cars to cross as well as a sidewalk for pedestrians.
When the new Little Belt Bridge came into use in 1970, the bridge lost its function as the main traffic line for cars between Funen and Jutland; however, it is still used as the only railway bridge between Jutland and Funen and thus the only railway line connecting Jutland with Zealand as well, as well as to carry traffic between Fredericia and Middelfart and their neighbouring villages.

Storstrøm Bridge is 3199 metres long and 9 metres wide. The longest span is 136 metres, and the maximum clearance to the sea is 26 metres. Storstrøm Bridge was opened by King Christian X on September 26, 1937.
The bridge was commissioned by the Danish state railways (De Danske Statsbaner) and designed by them with assistance from Christiani and Nielsen A/S of Copenhagen. Construction was by Dorman Long and company, with Christiani and Nielsen acting as sub-contractors responsible for foundations and reinforced concrete sections. The contract for the work was signed on 13 May 1933. Bridge designer Anker Engelund and chief civil engineer Anson Maunsell.
The bridge has 49 piers of different heights, extending to a maximum water depth of 145 metres. Each pier rests upon concrete foundations cast on the excavated bed of the sea, inside a cofferdam. Some piers could be excavated and cast with the cofferdam empty of water, where the soil was sufficiently waterproof, but others had to be excavated and cast underwater. Steel sheet piles were driven into the bed around the cofferdam. The foundations were continued upwards to a level 3 metres below the water surface.
The section of pier from 3 metres below water level to 3 metres above was made from pre-cast and granite clad concrete shells. These were set into position and then filled with concrete. The remainder of the height of each pier was created using sliding steel forms. The upper sections of the piers are hollow. Piers full height extends to a maximum of 38 Metres.
