Abstract:

The Lagen Bridge is the first application of prefabricated HDPE sheathed full locked coil cable stays on a Norwegian bridge. The structure is located in Kvam, about 100 km North from Lillehammer, and it is part of the development project of route E6 between Biri and Otta. Redaelli supplied the complete set of stay cables and performed cable installation and tensioning on site. This paper addresses the advantages of using HDPE sheathing with respect to cables durability, as well as the entire process of installation and tensioning of stay cables and all related challenges.
