Mainly oversea/floating bridges, (Bering Strait Bridge/Tunnel or underwater tunnels, canals linking major seas or oceans; and dams enclosing massive seas or oceans, especially The Bering Strait Dam and Gibraltar Dam/Anlantropa. There are many opportunities out there, trust me- I researched the geography. The problems are costs and criticism. Anyway, I have an idea how the number of bridge piers and towers could be reduced by a factor of at least 2/3 and the fewer towers needed would not need to be thousands of feet tall. The catch is I am looking for a deal of money in an amount that I would expect, since the method would be so useful for proposed oversea routes of bridges around the world because it would be more affordable, more achievable, more beneficial, and the method would make such projects an even greater opportunity and would occasionally make the difference between an approved and a dismissed oversea bridge project.
