Dr. Rosignoli has 32 years of experience in bridge design and construction in the US and abroad. He has worked with bridge contractors, designers, and owners in over 20 countries and four continents, serving as designer, reviewer, or technical leader for cable-stayed bridges, incrementally launched bridges, balanced-cantilever bridges, and light rail and high-speed railway bridges. An international authority on mechanized bridge construction and the incremental launching of bridges, he is the author of three books on bridge launching and mechanized bridge construction and more than 90 papers on bridge design and construction technology and holds more than 30 patents on bridge construction methods. He is also author of Chapter 6 of ASBI Construction Practices Handbook and of Chapter 6.37.40 of UNESCO Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems, he has founded and is chairing IABSE WG-6 Bridge Construction Equipment. He is member of ASBI Technical Advisory Committee, ASCE member, and IABSE fellow. He has published two "must-read" during the last year:

And I have been really lucky to be cited in his "Bridge Launching" 2nd edition, in the Chapter 4 about steel bridge launching, p. 260. Thank you very much Marco for your interest in my little piece of work. And I also want to thank my colleagues at GICONSIME: my research about bridge launching never would have developed without your help, ideas, "engendros...".
