Extreme Engineering unveils some of the most ambitious architectural plans of our times. Some are theoretical; others are in the works. But all of these modern marvels pose challenges that stretch the definition of what’s possible. Watch as jaw-dropping computer animation and first-hand accounts from builders, designers and engineers breathe life into the most extreme construction projects ever conceived. Season 2 – DVD Set (5 Disc): The setting is Malmo, Sweden. The task, build the tallest skyscraper in Northern Europe. In Venice, Italy, engineers battle the elements to keep the canal-laden city from becoming the next Atlantis. Watch as a group of ambitious Danish shipbuilders set out to build the most colossal, powerful cargo ship ever conceived. Meanwhile, hundreds of feet below the Eastern Highlands a determined group of engineers and diggers try to turn ice into electricity. Follow world class engineers as they tackle the biggest construction project in California history – the new Oakland Bay Bridge. On the other side of the United States, watch builders in Charleston, South Carolina as they try to build the longest cable-stay bridge in America. Meanwhile, across the pond in France, follow a group of visionaries committed to relieving the Tarn bottleneck.
