Abstract: |
The Yamuna crossing in New Delhi, a single-pylon cable-stayed bridge with a main span of about 250m length will be India´s longest-span bridge of this kind. The bridge is presently under construction and will be opened to traffic in 2014. In the paper the authors will elaborate on design and analysis of the superstructure of the bridge, and will put it in the context of other such long- span bridges in India and worldwide. |
