EXAMPLE OF “STEEL NEEDLE BEAM” APPLICATION at midspan
OF EXTRADOSED BRIDGE
EXPASION JOINT PROVIDED AT MID-SPAN MUST BE DESIGNED TO
RESIST THE MAXIMUM MOMENT UNDER VARIOUS LOADING CONDITIONS

THE USE OF “STEEL NEEDLE BEAM” AT EXPANSION JOINT


THOUGH USED EXTENSIVELY IS NOT A GOOD IDEA.
• INSPECTION AND REPLACABILITY OF BEARINGS NOT EASY
• REPLACACEABILITY OF STEEL BEAM NOT POSSIBLE

NORMANDIE BRIDGE, FRANCE. CABLE STAYED BRIDGE
WITH A MAIN SPAN OF 856 M HELD THE WORLD
RECORD TILL RECENTLY
CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE OF NORMANDIE BRIDGE
Steel-reinforced concrete composite bridge
SECOND HOOGLY BRIDGE
Cantilever Construction Technique
Riveted Construction as no weldable steel, no HSFG bolts available at that time
Stress range due to live loads decides fatigue

CABLE STAY BRIDGE ~ 0.4 Ultimate Strength


EXTRADOSED BRIDGE ~0.6 Ultimate Strength

FATIGUE OF STAY CABLES IS DETERMINING FACTOR FOR ALLOWABLE STRESSES
