          You could always try it yourself, it doesnt look too complicated.

          edit:too quite solo!

                  The most important and the most dificult for me is the structure...I try to create some different shapes (not in the same plan)
                  Maybe a little help?
                  for the moment look likes this =>
                  http://planetunrivalled.free.fr/TEST1.skp

                  also someone can send me a tutorial to create some curve like that?
                  Thx a lot

                  In the sketchup's file u will see the " structure's skeleton" i m not able to create
                  Thx guys

                        Then from this picture, one could only create something that "faintly" resembles something like that.

                              hi..
                              If you draw the outer lines (as you've done it already) use the plugin "curvesticher" to make the faces...
                              Furthermore you can try by extruding the surface and ROTATE the extruded face to give it an angle...

                                    nice, comprehensible, Jean. perhaps the next speed modeling challenge will be 'bridges'. you could be a winner there... 😉

                                    Charlyboy, don't forget to show us your progress... I would love to see what your finished bridge will look like
