| Abstract: |
The paper deals with the accelerated design-build realization of new bridge across Sava River in Belgrade. The total length of the bridge is 967 m. The main bridge part is an asymmetric cable-stayed structure, with a main span of 376 m (steel) and a back span of 200 m (concrete). The bridge deck, having width of 45 m, carries 6 lanes of vehicular traffic, 2 rail tracks of LRT and two lanes span pedestrian/cycleway. The bridge construction is accelerated by modern construction methods based on the original and innovative design. The accelerated construction methods, realized by modern construction equipment, are applied in the following works: foundation of pylon, erection of conical pylon, incremental launchings of 200 m back span & 338 m side spans, as well as one-sided antilever erection of 376 m main span followed by the installation of stays. The Sava Bridge was open for vehicular traffic and one-sided pedestrian/cycle traffic by New Year - on 1st January 2012. |
