Abstract

This bridge structure is designed as twin bridge of total length 1.40km, the structure has only two expansion joints in its length. Each bridge structure is designed as precast concrete girder with 29 and 30 spans. Three methods of casting were designed for this project, symmetrical cantilevers (part 3); stationary (part 1) and movable scaffolding system (part 2 and 4). The cross section of part 1,2 and 4 is double “T” beam, part 3 is box girder. Because of shortage of time all parts of structure had to be built together. Construction of the bridge has started in December 2014, the main prestressed concrete superstructure should be finished until December 2016 and all remaining works should be finalized in 2017.
