| Abstract: |
The New Granada Bypass launches from the connection with the A-44 highway (one of the main access paths to Granada) and extends along the Vega de Granada Metropolitan Area. Regarding the highway overpasses, a careful design has been established according to the important aesthetic impact these structures have on the road users. This design consists of a continuous prestressed concrete deck supported on a single point at the pier, and a special treatment of the cross section in addition of a remarkable global slenderness. In order to resist the seismic action, the project includes an innovative damping and isolating system, consisting on the combination of lead-core elastomeric bearings and sliding pendulous bearings. |
