BridgeCraft

Description: BridgeCraft is an generative tool designed for bridge engineers to streamline the process of designing suspension bridges. This Dynamo script allows users to input basic bridge dimensions such as length, height, and width, and automatically generates detailed bridge models including towers and cable placements. The tool is perfect for quick feasibility studies, preliminary design phases.
