- W639863568 abstract "This article describes the construction of an elegant multi-arch road bridge across the 1.25km wide estuary of the River Dinding in Malaysia. It will enable completion of a road linking Kuala Lumpur to a coastal resort 200km north of it. The bridge has 13 reinforced concrete arches, and is slightly more expensive than a straightforward pier and beam structure. Piers, based on piles through the alluvial silt of the river bed, had to be installed first. 580 spun concrete piles of 800mm diameter were driven in clusters and topped with 2.5m thick pilecaps. A climbing formwork system was used to construct the arches of the 930m main crossing. The hollow curving box of each arch has been tied back to a strong temporary steel tower, as it advances in 5m concrete sections, each of which takes up to ten days to cast. The formwork moves ahead of the stay-supported section, until the arch is completed with a central stitch. Careful balance is needed between the two sides of the rising arches, and the formwork must be adjusted to the precise shape of the arch curve. To minimise bending forces between the concrete and the steel stays, the arches have a hinge at the springing point. The whole crossing is expected to open at the end of 2000, thus creating a single-lane two-way highway for the region." @default.
