Scope of our work
independent check of initial design including global analysis and erection analysis (2002 - 2005)
schlaich bergermann und partner was commissioned with the independent check of the initial design of this unconventional cable stayed bridge. This design is defined by a central A-shape concrete tower (mast), two main spans without backstay cables – stabilized on either side by a monolithic connected end span – and a deck which is split into two carriageways each carrying four lanes. The deck is supported by four cable planes with a cable spacing of 7.5 m. The deck cross sections are 3-cell concrete box girders which are post-tensioned in the transverse direction. The deck will be fabricated of precast concrete deck elements each 2.5 m in length and weighing about 100 t. The elements will be connected via joint-gluing and longitudinal post-tensioning during construction.
Spans: 50 – 250 – 250 – 50 m
Width of deck: 2 x approx. 20 m
Height of box girder: 3 m
Height of mast: 158 m
Lanes: 2 × 4
