I have absolutely no idea what you're doing with this. It is certainly 
making the problem far more difficult than it needs to be. (For example, 
your XPos is just 5, and ZPos 1.5. I haven't a clue what YPos is 
supposed to be.)

Are you trying to fold a torus? What kind of bridge is it supposed to be 
like? What part has a 45 degree angle? Is 4cm a minor or major radius, 
or something else? What about the middle of it?

You need to give more information about what you want. Repeating the 
same vague description and apparently random bits of code won't work, no 
matter how good your English is.
