Abstract:

The construction of the Izmit Bay Suspension Bridge has started in January 2013 to be completed early 2016. The tower is steel construction reaching over 246.5m above sea level and to be completed by end of 2014, followed by the cable erection in 2015. The papers describe the surveying method to control tower geometry within designed tolerance during construction.
