    Specifics would depend on what type of bridge you are constructing and the size. GPS & lasers would be used for surveying. Concrete would be poured into forms after the anchor and rebar structure is in place. Although difference stresses are at play, concrete pour would be similar to on land since concrete is a chemical reation and hardens under water.
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
