In the building, which was renovated in 2010 and reopened on March 20, 2010, techniques of bridge construction and projects with over-long (suspension) bridges are shown. In addition to construction projects from all over the world, the construction projects of the Akashi-Kaikyō-Bridge and the Honshū-Shikoku-Bridge project ( 本州 四 国 連絡 橋 , Honshū-Shikoku renrakukyō ) will be presented. This project included the construction of three suspension bridges that connect the Japanese main island of Honshū with Shikoku . The first of these three bridges was the Seto-Ōhashi , one of a total of six bridges over which the Seto-Chūō highway leads.
