    Number of lanes

    Construction material
    Bedrock type
    Ambient temperature range
    Weight of traffic
    Applicable international standards in the country of installation

    The Institute of Civil Engineers can probably provide more.

    Edit: sorry, some of those are NFR, of course.

    Sounds like you're building a railway!

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

      Oh? Didn't the original poster want a cantilever bridge?

      The complete absence of industry, sector, timescale, major risks, technical aspects, scale or any other useful information left me at a loss of how to help.

      It was like one of those homework questions you get on LinkedIn's Answers.

      I have electronic copies of all the NFR and FR specs I have done this past 14 years on this very laptop. But without knowing what kind of product is being built...
      My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

        In my old life I used to charge clients in the City of London £500 to £600 per day for this sort of information.

        Projects and requirements are different and the format of the functional requirements will be different depending on what you are trying to achieve and the audience the requirements are intended for.

        That's why you need a professional not a generic template.
