伟大工程巡礼39.胡佛水坝（Hoover.Dam 2006.05.16播出）
Throughout human history, mankind has built monuments to its ingenuity and skill. In Egypt it was the Pyramids. Rome, built the Colosseum. The Greeks built the Acropolis. The great cathedrals of Europe raised the skills of their builders to unequalled heights, creating awe inspiring structures. In the Americas, the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde and the high mountain city of Machu Pichu speak to the skill and ingenuity of their builders. In the modern era, it's buildings that reach near half a mile into the sky, bridges that stretch enormous distances in a single span, and machines that extend mankind's reach far into space. One monument that must surely be counted among the great achievements of mankind is Hoover Dam.
胡佛水坝于1935年宣告落成，是历史上最庞大的建筑之一。胡佛水坝不仅是一座雄伟壮观的水坝，如今更成为一处旅游胜地。70多年过去了，新建成的水坝不断挑战这个伟大的先驱，但胡佛水坝仍堪称史上最具标志性的大坝。

Lifting a mind-blowing 14,000 ships a year over a nine-storey mountain range, the Panama Canal relies on some of the mightiest machines in the world: gargantuan locks, a colossal crane, and the world's largest dipper dredge. This is one of the trickiest waterways in the world, but thousands of ships risk it every year to deliver their goods faster. Demand is so high, traffic never stops and plans for a bigger, better canal are underway. Can the mother of all mega movers handle the pressure?见见神奇搬运家之母，巴拿马运河，这是百年来全球航运的捷径，但这个19世纪的奇迹几乎应付不了21世纪的需求，如今海上船只的数目不可同日而语，如果运河无法让船只通行，它们自然会另辟蹊径，这个神奇搬运家如今不成功便成仁，要应付激烈的竞争需要大队人马和机具。
伟大工程巡礼54：超级潜艇（Ultimate Structures Super Sup 2007播出）
Ultimate Sub deconstructs a mystery machine that few of us have seen up close - and even fewer fully understand. How can a super-size hunk of heavy metal, packed to the gills with fragile humans, dominate an underwater world where the pressure is so intense it could crush you to death in seconds? Focusing on the latest-generation submarine, the USS Texas, as well as other international subs, Ultimate Sub tells the story of this incredible invention. Through exclusive access to training missions, CGI and recreation, we'll show how today's submarines defy the imagination: they dive deeper, are quieter (and deadlier) and are capable of feats that would amaze even science fiction writers. We also investigate what happened in some historic accidents and show how new technologies seek to prevent future calamities. 潜艇游弋在大洋里，能无预警地发动攻击。得克萨斯号独树一帜，巡航深度接近海面下1000英尺，装备了鱼雷、导弹和特种部队。在任何需要它的地方，都能祭出致命一击。让我们透过钢铁外衣，探索超级潜艇的秘密。
伟大工程巡礼57：超级管道（ Super Pipeline 2008播出）
By 2008, Norway will be connected to the United Kingdom via a 1,200 km super pipeline - the longest sub sea pipeline in the world. But this connection is just one part of an enormous plan to tap into Norway's second largest gas deposit, capable of providing 20 percent of the UK's gas needs for decades to come. Located 3 km below the ocean's surface and 120 km offshore, the deposit is beyond human reach. All construction has to be completed by robots working against strong underwater currents, sub-zero temperatures and extreme wind and wave conditions. When tapped, the gas will be transported to one of the largest automated gas processing plants to prepare it for shipment to Britain. Each phase of this tricky project puts ingenuity and engineering to the ultimate test.
由于处在偏僻而又深邃的海底，奥蒙朗格一度被认为是人和机器都无法到达的区域。这是天然气业界有史以来风险最高的建筑工程之一，也是全世界最长的海底管道。利用庞大的船舶铺设１０万根管子，太空时代机器人在人类鞭长莫及的深处，挖掘出像月球表面般的沟渠，但这项工程能承受波涛汹涌的北海吗？
伟大工程巡礼59：超级直升机（Ultimate Structures Super Copter 2007播出）
The latest \"super copters\" are an advanced breed of machines - built to fly fast and silently on an incredible range of missions. Just about anything a helicopter can do, the newest \"super copters\" can do better. One such \"super copter,\" known as EH101, carries an array of high-tech features including three computer-controlled engines and a five-bladed rotor that offers extra maneuverability in flight and excellent visibility when landing. New copter designs will also be much more impervious to attack, with Kevlar and other advanced composite materials strengthening the body - while keeping it lightweight. Using live action, re-creations, amazing archival footage and advanced CGI, we marvel at the creation of today's \"super copters\" - extraordinary multi-purpose helicopters for the twenty-first century.
最新的“超级直升机”身为先进机具，飞得又快又安静，前往直升机以往到不了的地方，就连内太空也不例外。EH101 超级直升机被誉为科技成就的突破。EH101等新设计也将更能防御攻击，因为使用了克薇拉复合材料，不仅能增加机身强度，同时亦达成轻量化。通过真实行动、现场模拟、惊人的资料片以及先进的电脑动画，我们赞叹着今日“超级直升机”的诞生，它是二十一世纪出奇的多用途直升机。

The Harley-Davidson V-Rod is the first Harley-Davidson motorcycle to go from 0 to 96 kilometres per hour in just 3.52 seconds - nearly twice as fast as any other Harley-Davidson bike. With its thrilling speed, liquid-cooled engine and exterior frame, the V-Rod represents a number of important firsts for Harley-Davidson. At the Harley-Davidson factory in Kansas City, US, it is up to the engineers, designers and factory workers to ensure the V-Rod can handle the high speeds for which it was designed, whilst maintaining the signature Harley-Davidson style consumers have come to love. Robots engage in a carefully choreographed dance to create the motorcycle's unique frame and remove any kinks. The engine assembly line, which puts together the V-Rod's powerful V-Twin engine, includes miniature cameras that monitor for any missing parts. Inside this mega factory, workers also build the V-Rod's custom-made cousins: Screamin' Eagle V-Rod and the Screamin' Eagle V-Rod Destroyer, the fastest factory-built drag racer ever made.
V-Rod是第一辆可在3.52秒内，从0加速到每小时96公里的哈雷机车，比其它哈雷机车快将近两倍，V-Rod的惊人速度、水冷引擎跟外部骨架，都是哈雷机车重要的创举。在美国堪萨斯市的哈雷机车工厂里，工程师、设计师与员工，努力确保V-Rod同时兼顾速度与风格。

This episode looks at the colossal RMS Queen Mary 2 (QM2) superliner - the longest, tallest and broadest ship ever built at the time of its completion in 2003. Featuring recollections and insights from naval architect Stephen Payne, oceanographer Simon Boxall and QM2 captain Ronald Warwick.
玛丽皇后二号以另一艘被取代了的姊妹邮轮玛丽皇后号来命名。玛丽皇后号，则取名自前英女皇玛丽皇后(伊利沙伯2世祖母)。在2003年建造的时候，玛丽皇后二号被公认为世界上最长、最阔和最高的客轮。她亦曾是排水量最大的客轮，达到148，528吨。2006年4月这个纪录被皇家加勒比国际邮轮公司建造，排水量154，407吨的海洋自由号 (Freedom of the Seas) 取替。虽然如此，她仍是目前全球体积最大的远洋客轮。玛丽皇后二号有15个餐厅和酒吧、5个游泳池、1个赌场、1个舞池、1个舞台和1个天象馆.
伟大工程巡礼82.北京水立方（Beijing Water Cube 2008播出）
Just in time for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, workers are feverishly putting the finishing touches on the National Aquatics Centre – the Beijing Water Cube. A stroke of design genius, this Olympic Megastructure is a steel honeycomb-like frame enclosed entirely by a unique skin, modelled after soap bubbles. Using 90 kilometres worth of steel in 22,000 beams following no conventional straight lines, the Beijing Water Cube must be topped with 100,000 square metres of bubbles. Looking for a truly unique covering, the design team focuses on ETFE – a light-weight plastic invented to protect spaceships from cosmic radiation. Among ETFE’s unique properties, dot patterns on its surface can trap solar energy in the winter and reflect solar energy in the summer, keeping the building cool. The Beijing Water Cube is the largest ETFE construction in the world, and because of its honeycomb-like structure, 3,500 ETFE bubbles must be cut individually, and sized. Factor in that the dimensions have been created in Germany and must be translated into a Chinese database and the Beijing Water Cube becomes a bit of a logistical nightmare. Beijing’s Water Cube represents a true morphing of molecular science, architecture and structural engineering.水立方由全球华人资助兴建，代表了他们对中国主办2008年奥运的希望和梦想。建筑设计由澳洲ＰＴＷ建筑事务所和ＡＲＵＰ的结构工程师，以及中国建筑工程总公司联手设计打造。并由中国民众通过网络投票表决，最终由中国领导阶层拍板定案。水立方的设计融合了多项科技成果，设计理念更是来自于肥皂泡泡——四氟乙烯。四氟乙烯简写为ＥＴＦＥ，化学家称之为含氟聚合物，我们一般人管它叫塑胶。这种材料以其特殊的结构造就了水立方环保、防火、耐震的特质。这座令人叹为观止的蜂巢，耗费长达９０公里的钢材，两万两千根钢梁，完全违背了传统的直线设计。错综复杂的金属构架，这些钢材足以绕过奥运跑道２００多圈。外覆１０万平方米的塑胶膜，足以覆盖１４座原尺寸的橄榄球场。切割成直径９米的气枕，但厚度只有０.２毫米，比一分钱的镍币薄了近８倍。这一切无一例外的使其成为２１世纪中国建筑的杰作。
伟大工程巡礼87：超级工厂-消防车（Fire.Truck 2008播出）
皮尔斯制造厂专门生产从雷射到重型起重机等高科技产品，这辆终极消防车就是它的产品之一。它有长达一百英尺的云梯，和各式各样的功能。它能在一分钟内射出两千加仑的水，又具有精准的操控性、多项安全新设计和绝佳的避震效果，称得上是最高科技的消防车。
