Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to present the different floating bridge solutions that have been evaluated for the crossing of Bjørnafjorden. It appears to be feasible to place the navigation channel either in the middle of the fjord or in the vicinity of the southern shore. In both scenarios a straight bridge alternative anchored to the seabed and a curved solution without mooring lines are evaluated.
