The construction project for the new Polcevera Viaduct is a source of pride for Italy in these difficult times, and the completion of the deck structure has been a cause for celebration.
The Mersey Gateway Project achieved another milestone as the first deck span for the elevated north approach viaduct was completed.
Work started on site in May 2014 to build a six-lane toll bridge over the Mersey River between the towns of Runcorn and Widnes and opening is set for the autumn of 2017. As well as construction of the new bridge, works include the upgrading of 7km of highway to the north and south of the river - the main bridge is 2.2km long – and changing traffic flow so the majority of tra
Wacker Neuson’s smallest excavator, the 803 dual power, is punching above its weight on the Kocher Viaduct demolition project near Heilbronn in Germany.
The electric-hydraulic and diesel-powered mini-excavator can fully deploy its advantages with emission-free work in confined spaces on site where construction company Leonhard Weiss is reconstructing the viaduct.
At 185m, the Kocher viaduct is the highest bridge in Germany. Around 50,000 vehicles cross it daily. The Kocher viaduct was designed as a pr
In Peru, the Metropolitan Municipality of Lima is expected to approve in August 2013 a US$400 million underground viaduct project, including a 10km double-carriage way road and a 1.5km tunnel under the Cerro Centinela. The private initiative submitted by Spanish construction firm OHL will connect the La Molina and Miraflores districts. Once approved, the proposal will be tendered for 90 days, and should no other company bid for it, OHL will negotiate the contract and begin construction immediately. Work on
Engineers with RMD Kwikform used 3D modelling to overcome challenging terrain and tight schedules for pouring a single-deck concrete viaduct in mid-Norway. The Doro Viaduct is a post-tension three-span single-carriageway measuring 9.5m wide. It forms an important part of the large realignment of the E39 Harangen-Høgkjølen route in the Trondheim mid-region of Norway. The project needed a formwork and shoring solution to support a 93m-long, 750m3 single-deck pour for the three span Doro viaduct in Norway. For
