ABSTRACT: Throughout more thousand years of human civilization, bridge and bridge architecture had indicated the creativity, initiative and ingenuity of human and his understanding and feeling about architect, resistance, beauty, symmetry, harmony and other values were always under the judgment of next generations. Across history, bridge was not just a tool to connect two areas but it was a sample of ability, ingenuity, creativity and the skill of human. The connection between two parts was a source of inspiration, a new idea was formed, new methods were created and new bridges were constructed. 363 historical bridges indicate the importance of this structure among different Iranian historical architecture works. Bridge building was flourished simultaneously by creating more connection between cities and commercial centers. Iranian architecture history quoted the building of several bridges which nowadays there is no any sign of them. The bridges were always exposed to rivers overflowing and natural erosion. Probably there is no such dependency between structure and architecture in other kind of constructions. In fact, the bridge architecture is a combination of structures which are influenced by river bed, ground strength and amount of water across it.
Keywords: Bridge Architecture, Design Method, Material Type, Constructing Technique, Natural Factors.
