Floating bridge is a set of specialized shallow draft boats or floats hyperlink collectively to cross the river or canal or lake. With a track or deck most early floating bridge had been built for the features of the battle. There are numerous kinds of floating bridges relying on the conditions of the land and the type of barriers to cross. The principle behind floating bridge concept is the Archimedes’ principle of buoyancy. This study was made to review previous studies concerned about the floating bridges. Almost all the study concerned with floating bridge components and their suitability with the given condition. only limited information is available for floating bridges in many aspects. In this study we have covered the different types of pontoons, access to bridge, navigational openings, mooring systems, etc. are the most important parts of floating bridge.
