| Abstract: |
A cable stayed bridge with a length of 900m comprising central span of 500m and side spans of 200m each including approach spans is being constructed between Okha Port and Beyt Dwarka in the state of Gujarat and nearing completion. The overall length of the bridge is 2320m including approaches. The pylon height is 130m and each pylon leg is supported on pile foundation. The deck width is 27.2m which includes divided carriageways of 9.5m width each and 2.5m wide covered footpath on each side. Constructing this bridge over a sea creek posed several challenges. This paper describes the salient features of the bridge, construction methodology adopted and the challenges faced. |
