Abstrakt: |
The Izmit Bay Suspension Bridge, app. 50 km east of Istanbul, crosses the Sea of Samara with a main span of 1550 m. The foundation of the bridge poses interesting challenges in that the bridge site is in a highly seismic region. Moreover the ground profile ranges from Dolomitic Limestone to a thick sandwich of silty sand and clay layers overlying the bedrock. |
