Project details

Technical Data

Technical information – Total length: 175 m – Main span: 150 m – Width: 35.8 m

Description

In order to connect the future Valdebas Park and Terminal 4 of Barajas Airport, a bridge has been designed using a cable-stayed, double composite action multiple grid bridge. The grid is formed by three longitudinal box girders in Corten steel, spaced 12.70 m between centrelines and connected to an upper 30 cm concrete slab which forms the platform of the deck. Composite diaphragms are set transversally and connecting the longitudinal girders.The deck is stayed by tour sloping piers set two and two within the 2.4 m strip of the side box girders of the deck.Each of these stays is formed by a pair of powerful, parallel cables set backwards and forwards.
