Abstract: |
Indian Roads Congress (IRC) is bringing out two independent guidelines on Cable Stayed and Extradosed Bridges pertaining to ‘Design, Construction and Maintenance’ aspects. As on date, there are documents on stay cable design and technological aspects like, fib bulletin 89, SETRA and PTI which have been universally followed for the design and construction of cable stayed and extradosed bridges. There is also a state of the art report SED17 on extradosed bridges by IABSE and specifications for design and construction of cable stayed and extradosed bridges by Japan Prestressed Concrete Institute. The Indian independent guidelines on cable stayed and extradosed bridges are unique and complete in all respects as such is expected to improve the quality of design and construction in India to a large extent. This paper deals with the construction aspects as delineated in the guidelines. |
