Bridge to the Future
通向未来之桥
Engineering students at West Virginia's 5-year-old Constructed Facilities Center are testing a new patch, a so-called bridge Band-Aid.
在西佛吉尼亚州的有5年历史的建造设施中心的工学学生正在测试一个新的补丁，一个所谓的桥梁创可贴。
So easy to apply, they claim, it can be used to repair bridges without having to divert traffic.
很容易用，他们声称，它能被用于修补桥梁而不用疏导交通。
It's part of their mission to develop new and improved building materials and construction techniques.
他们任务的一部分就是发展新的改良的建筑材料和建造技术。
Many of the materials they're testing are called composites -combinations of plastics, fiber glass or space-age carbon materials - that one day might even be used to build an entire bridge.
他们所测试的很多材料被称为复合组合材料，由塑料、玻璃纤维或者太空时代的碳材料组成，有朝一日它甚至可能被用于建造一座完整的桥梁。
