Abstrait: |
A large new lift bridge is being completed over the River Seine, half way between the City of Rouen and its harbour located downstream. To fit with this environment engineers and architects have designed an innovative structure, which combines efficiency, reliability and elegance. Its masterpiece is the lifting system, located in between the two independent lifting spans. It features two reinforced concrete hollow shafts supporting an innovative and ingenious butterfly–shaped, crossleverage system, which optimizes both structural and mechanical designs. |
