This record was broken by completion of the parallel span in 1969. At 23.87 miles long, the Causeway is the world’s longest continuous span over water. The prestressed, pre-cast concrete structural system displays mid-twentieth century technology that typifies modern bridge construction techniques.

    Analysis of the Interstate 10 Twin Bridge’s Collapse During Hurricane Katrina By Genda Chen, Emitt C. Witt III, David Hoffman, Ronaldo Luna, and Adam Sevi The Interstate 10 Twin Span Bridge over Lake Pontchartrain north of New Orleans, La., was rendered completely unusable by Hurricane Katrina. The cause of the collapse of the bridges generated great interest among hydrologists and structural engineers as well as among the general public. What made this case study even more important was the fact that two nearby the failure bridges sustained the effects of the same of the Interstate 10 (I-10) storm surge and suffered only light Twin Span Bridge over Lake damage. Lessons learned from this Pontchartrain.

  • The Causeway Bridge Construction, Past & Present
    THE CAUSEWAY BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION, PAST & PRESENT Hossein Ghara, PE, MBA, Volkert Inc., (225)288-1163, [email protected] The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway is a toll bridge which spans over Lake Pontchartrain from Causeway Boulevard in Metairie, Louisiana to Highway 190 at Mandeville, Louisiana. This toll facility is managed by the Greater New Orleans Expressway Commission (GNOEC) and has been listed since 1969 by the Guinness Book of Worlds Records as the World’s longest bridge over water at 23.83 miles long. The Causeway Bridge consists of two parallel bridges designed and constructed in different periods of time. The original bridge is on the West, it opened in 1956 and carries traffic from North to South. The second bridge on the East, opened in 1969 and carries traffic in the opposite direction. Palmer and Baker, Inc., designed the first bridge to exclusively consist of identical panels, caps and pilings. The 56’ long and 33’ wide spans were cast monolithically to allow for all pieces of the bridge to be fabricated offsite, minimizing cost and time required to construct such a large structure. Despite the fact many engineers consider “Accelerated Bridge Construction” (ABC) as a new and innovative bridge engineering phenomenon, the design and construction technologies which was incorporated for this bridge in the 1950’s is a testament to the fact ABC was being implemented in Louisiana long before it received its formal recognition and title. The Louisiana Bridge Company (LBC), a joint venture between Brown and Root, Inc. of Houston, Texas and T.L. James Company of Ruston, Louisiana, implemented Palmer & Baker’s design.
