Abstract: |
In order to complete the connection between the A15 and A12 highways in the Dutch region Gelderland, a bridge over the river ‘Pannerdensch Kanaal’ will be constructed. The main bridge is erected using the balanced cantilever construction method and designed as a continuous three- span box girder with varying height at a total length of 340 m. The superstructure consists of a longitudinally and transversally post-tensioned concrete deck with a maximum span length of 170 m and an approximate width of 28 m. Furthermore, the structure contains a bicycle and a pedestrian steel bridge, which are suspended below/beside the deck, allowing cyclists and pedestrians to cross the river and the Natura 2000 protected area. Additionally the bridge complex integrates ecological demands, such as swallow nests and bat roosts. |
