| Abstract: |
This paper describes the structural design of the new Storstrøm Bridge under construction in Denmark, carried out by DMA - De Miranda Associati from the initial tender phase through development of basic design to the early phases of construction in 2021. The bridge, the contracting entity for which is the Danish Road Directorate, is a prestressed concrete road and railway structure almost 4km long, including a central cable-stayed section with 160m spans and two approach viaducts. The paper describes the design concepts, structural concepts, construction methods, static and dynamic analysis, as well as the wind analysis and the wind tunnel test campaign designed by DMA and carried out for assessing the structural response of the bridge to wind action. |
