This study attempts to answer the question of how was the construction of the Khaju Bridge at different times. The impetus behind the paper is to reconstruct the original structure of the Khaju Bridge based on data gathered from descriptive and visual documents in different periods and provide a general understanding of the Khaju Bridge from the beginning of its existence to the present time.
