Abstract: |
The cable stayed between the islands of Cebu and Mactan is the main work of the road concession Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway. Its 390-m long main span over the Cebu port navigation channel turns it the longest cable-stayed span in the Philippines. This paper provides an overview of its design features emphasizing the distinctive constraints that include high seismicity, geological variability, high wind speeds due to frequent typhoons and large ship impact loads. |
