Pr Ess R Elease 5 July 2016 PRESS Turkey: opening of Osman Gazi Bridge to traffic (Gebze-Izmir motorway) RELEASE The Turkish President Erdogan has inaugurated the Osman Gazi Bridge at a grand ceremony in the presence of more than 10,000 guests. The Osman Gazi Bridge is the last part of the section which opened to traffic last month – Yalova-Orhangazi – of the toll motorway between Gebze and Izmir. Measuring 3.3 km in length, this suspension bridge has a central span of 1,550 metres, the fourth longest in the world for this type of bridge. The bridge provides a substantially time-saving alternative to the road route around the Izmit bay and to the ferry service crossing the strait. The next motorway section to be opened to traffic at the end of 2016 will run from Orhangazi to the outskirts of Bursa. President Erdogan declared that all 420 kilometres of highway running from Gebze to Izmir would be open to traffic in 2018. One of the largest projects operated by Egis The project is operated by the company GIIB (Gebze-Izmir Isletme Ve Bakim), a 50/50 subsidiary between the Egis group and the concession company Otoyol. In 2018, GIIB will operate infrastructure including 420 km of motorway between Gebze and Izmir, 33 bridges, 3 two-way tunnels, 17 motorway service areas and 187 overpasses. This project features among the largest operated by an Egis group subsidiary and comes as further confirmation of Egis’ status as one of the worldwide leaders in the operation of motorways and toll structures. Egis is well-established in Turkey. In August 2016, its subsidiary ICE (51% owned by Egis Road Operation) will start operating the third bridge over the Bosporus and the North Marmara motorways in partnership with Ictas (49% shareholder), while subsidiary Egis Tünel Işletmeciliği (100% Egis Road Operation) will commence the operation of the Avrasya tunnel running beneath the Bosporus at the end of December 2016. 1 About Egis €937 million managed turnover in 2015 13,000 employees Egis is an international group offering engineering, project structuring and operations services. In engineering and consulting, its sectors of activity include transport, urban development, building, industry, water, environment and energy. In roads and airports its offer is enlarged to encompass project structuring, equity investment, turnkey systems delivery, operation and maintenance services and mobility services. Employing 13,000 people, including 8,300 in engineering, the group generated a managed turnover of €937 million in 2015. Egis is 75%-owned by the French “Caisse des Dépôts” and 25%-owned by Iosis Partenaires (a “partner” executive and employee shareholding).

  • Wind Analysis of the Bosphorus Suspension Bridge: Numerical and Experimental Investigation
    Wind Analysis of the Bosphorus Suspension Bridge: Numerical and Experimental Investigation Selcuk Bas1, 2, Nurdan M. Apaydin3, Alper Ilki4 and F. Necati Catbas5 1 Department of Civil Engineering, Bartin University, Bartin, Turkey 2 Graduate School of Science, Engineering and Technology, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul Turkey 2 Department of Structures, General Directorate of Turkish State Highways, Ankara, Turkey 3 Department of Civil Engineering, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul Turkey 4 Civil, Environmental and Construction Engineering, University of Central Florida, Florida, USA ABSTRACT: Long-span suspension bridges are subjected to various loading events in their life- cycle. Along with operational loads, they have experiences on extreme loads, such as earthquake, wind, marathon etc. Of all these extreme events, wind is the most critical one, which in turn design considerations of the structural components of long-span bridges are adopted according to wind load. Based on these considerations, wind-induced behavior of the Bosphorus Bridge is presented in this study. For this aim, the extreme wind events that happened in April 18 2012 is considered and the data obtained from the Structural Health Monitoring system-SHMs of the bridge during the event are utilized for experimental analysis. Conducting certain data processing methods to make the SHM data more identifiable on the basis on modal characteristics of the bridge, the response of the bridge to the strong wind event are determined. For numerical investigation on wind behavior of the bridge, 3-D full-scale shell finite element model (FE) of the bridge is established and the sophisticated FE model is verified with the SHM data from the extreme wind event.

  • Mega Projects
    Mega Projects Marmaray: Marmaray is an undersea railway tunnel linking the Asian and European sides of Istanbul, and its first phase has been in operation since October 2013, the 90th anniversary of the Republic of Turkey. Marmaray makes a significant contribution to Istanbul’s railway network, with connections to the Istanbul metro and the high-speed railway line between Istanbul and Ankara. Marmaray has carried more than 120 million passengers since its inauguration. Third Bosphorus Bridge and North Marmara Highway: Istanbul’s third Bosphorus bridge (Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge) links Istanbul’s European and Asian sides. It was designed as a hybrid bridge, and as such holds the distinction as the world’s widest and longest combined road and rail bridge. The bridge is part of the North Marmara Highway project, stretching from Adapazarı, Sakarya to Tekirdag. Once fully operational, the project will further ease the burden on the existing two bridges spanning the Bosphorus and provide a transit corridor for freight transportation that bypasses the busy city center. The project has created around 6,000 jobs and the construction activities have added an annual TRY 1.75 billion to the economy. Eurasia Tunnel: The tunnel enables motor vehicles to travel between Asia and Europe via a highway tunnel running underneath the Marmara seabed. The 3.34 km-long two- deck undersea tunnel will have a daily capacity of 120,000 vehicles and will significantly cut the distance between Kazlicesme on the European side and Goztepe on the Asian side of Istanbul. It is expected to be open by the end of 2016.

THERMAL SCIENCE: Year 2020, Vol. 24, Suppl. 1, pp. S391-S398 S391 REVIEW OF TOTAL EMISSION OF TRANSIT SHIPS IN THE DARDANELLE WHICH INCLUDING POSSIBLE CO2 EMISSION OF 1915 CANAKKALE BRIDGE by Kadir MERSIN* International Logistics and Transportation Department, Istanbul Gelisim University, Istanbul, Turkey Original scientific paper https://doi.org/10.2298/TSCI20S1391M Canakkale Strait (Dardanelles), is one of two straits that have Turkey with Bospho- rus. This strait, which has a length of 38 miles, provides the connection of coun- tries with a coast to the Black Sea to the Mediterranean. 43454 ships pass through the strait annually. According to 2019 data, 45.33% general cargo ship, 21.43% bulk carrier, 21.78% tanker, 6.43% container, 0.65% ro-ro, and 0.61% passenger ship, and 3.77% other type of ship passed. Therefore, by including the Canakkale 1915 bridge which will be completed in 2023, the six most frequent ship types were examined and their emission values were calculated in this study. Key words: ship emission, Dardanelle, Canakkale Bridge, CO2 emission Introduction International maritime trade is the greenest form of transportation compared to other modes of transport and emits the lowest CO2 emission per unit load per kilometer but, it is re- sponsible for 3.3% of global CO2 emissions [1]. According to fuel consumption, CO2, NOx, and SOx emissions from exhaust gas emis- sions from ships correspond to approximately 2%, 11%, and 4% of global anthropogenic emis- sions [2]. This rate is at a considerable level.
