| Abstrakt: |
“La Concordia” Bridge, with a 162 m span, is due to become one of Madrid’s most relevant landmarks. Its conception was governed by the surrounding services constraints, aesthetical concern and structural efficiency. The result is a bowstring steel arch with composite deck, whose shape inspired in industrial design, blends with Barajas Airport’s T4 Terminal. The bridge also displays an innovative connection between arch and deck: diagrid, a steel mesh which, adequately combined with the lighting devices endows the bridge with unique personality. |
