Bridge
Bridge over River Rudavoi
Works: Bridge over River Rudavoi
Location: Belluno, Italy
Project Features:
Bridge with 3 spans, cast in situ, variable section.
bridge length: 180 m
bridge width: 11,50 m
thickness of slab: min: 1,50 m, max.8,00 m
transversal inclination: 3,5%
radius: 140 m
height piers: 5,00 m
distance piers:100 m
The bridge has been realized in 3 different steps. The first step covers the length of 70 m next to one pier using MECCANO and ORTHOLPLUS shoring. AFTER maturation of concrete and striking these shoring units have been re-used in mirrored manner next to the other pier. For the realization of the remaining 40 m of central part of the bridge a provisory pier has been constructed. Placing on these provisory piers and on the lateral provisory foundations T100 towers, the support for the 2,50m high TAP 2500 beams has been placed. On top of the braced TAP 2500 beams the formwork for the bridge section, designed of MECCANO componets could be accurately placed
Using the MECCANO towers with in all direction rotatable jacks the perfect adjustment has been guaranteed, like required by the very specific curved and inclined geometry of the final construction. Doing this the use of wooden stencils in this case has been avoided, which was a significant contribution to save money.
