ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The overall length of the new bridge over the River Magdalena amounts to 4 km, distributed between the 1,865 m of the work’s main trunk and the 1,920 m of the different branches on the left riverbank. The main feature is the 830 m long cable-stayed bridge with a 380 m central span, required to comply with the new navigation requisites. The entire deck is made of prestressed precast concrete sections. With the aim of unifying the construction solutions for both the main bridge and approach viaducts as well as the secondary branches a precast segmental solution was chosen.
