During the conference entitled Science and Art of Building, various themes were discussed that in the history of architecture, from the seven wonders of the ancient world onwards, have animated architectural and structural research. There is no doubt that the Bridge over the Strait of Messina was also a topic of great interest, given its great topicality. Not only was the opportunity to build the work discussed in light of the controversy, but also the possibility of reducing the free span of the single span by placing the pylons in the water.
