Modern Techniques in Bridge Engineering
৳ 990.70
Due to significant economic growth in the last few decades, increasing traffic loads impose tremendous demand on bridge structures. This, coupled with ongoing deterioration of bridges, introduces a unique challenge to bridge engineers in maintaining service of these infrastructure assets without disruption to vital economic and social act.
The Forth Replacement Crossing Road bridge will be built across the Firth of Forth in Scotland to maintain and enhance a vital transport link. The wide estuary will be crossed by a cable stayed bridge with 3 towers and a pair of 650 m main spans. In the center of each main span the stay cables will overlap to stabilize the central tower, a unique design feature for a bridge of this scale. The scheme design of the crossing has been carried out by the in accordance with the Eurocodes and project specific design criteria. The structure will provide a fitting 21st century icon, to stand alongside the existing Grade A listed bridges: the cantilever rail bridge from the 19th century and the road suspension bridge from the 20th century.
