	Gault Millau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gault Millau is most famous for its rating system, on a scale of 1 to 20.
		Michelin is certainly more popular and therefore more influential, while Gault Millau has been considered more purist due to the main system being based purely on the quality of the food at the restaurant.
		What is clear, however, is that the introduction of the Gault Millau guide and its points system moved the focus more clearly onto the quality of the food provided by the restaurant and so reduced the focus on the luxury of the surroundings.

	Encyclopedia: Millau viaduct
		Millau viaduct in France, currently the world's tallest vehicular bridge.
		The Millau Viaduct ( French : le Viaduc de Millau) is a cable-stayed road bridge that spans the valley of the River Tarn near Millau in southern France.
		The construction consortium is made up of the Eiffage TP company for the concrete part, the Eiffel company for the steel roadway ( Gustave Eiffel built the Garabit viaduct in 1884, a train bridge in the neighboring Cantal dÃ©partement), and the Enerpac company for the roadway's hydraulic supports.

	Millau Viaduct - France - Cable-Stayed Bridge
		The detailed studies commenced in 1993 and in 1994 the restricted competition was called, in which five teams of architects participated, the winning alternative being that submitted by the team comprising French engineers Sogelerg, EEG, SERF and Foster, in 1996.
		This company was awarded a 75-year operating concession in exchange for financing the works, whose cost was estimated (at the commencement of construction) at 300 000 000, plus a further 20 000 000 for the toll station located 6 km further north.
		When the Millau Viaduct was being designed, Eiffel, a subsidiary of the Eiffage Group and dedicated to steel construction, estimated that seven intermediate temporary piers were required between the definitive piers in order to be able to 'launch' the deck during its construction.
