    Bridges and culverts are structures that allow transportation across obstacles like bodies of water or valleys. Bridges connect disconnected areas and are made of materials like stone, brick, timber, steel, concrete, or composites. Culverts allow water to flow under roads and are typically made of concrete, steel, aluminum, or plastic. Both structures have components like decks, abutments, piers, and foundations and are classified based on their design, materials, span, purpose, and more. The document provides examples of bridges and culverts in Quezon province in the Philippines.
