Project details

Technical Data

  • Total length: 567 m
  • Typical span: 44 m
  • Width: 8.80 m

Description

The structural type considered for the deck consists of a single composite box girder of constant depth throughout the structure, with an upper concrete deck connected to the webs of the steel box element.  The exact box condition allows the presence of lower bottom concrete in the areas of negative moments close to the piers.

The piers have received an attractive aesthetic treatment with the use of external curved forms which are in total consonance with the rest of the structures in the section.

The work has been designed with economy in mind and in order to allow ease of construction while at all time observing the conditions imposed by current regulations regarding this type of structures.
