Design and Construction of Extradosed Bridges in Cold Temperature and Seismic Zones
Design and Construction of Extradosed Bridges in Cold Temperature and Seismic Zones Dr. Matthias Schueller, P.Eng. Vice President Parsons Structures Session 2020 TAC Conference & Exhibition Abstract Extradosed bridges are often described as a cross of a conventional prestressed concrete girder bridge and a traditional cable-stayed bridge because most extradosed bridges built combine a prestressed concrete superstructure with stay-cable technologies. However, this simple definition does not capture the various possible structural systems and different materials that can be found and used for extradosed bridges. Extradosed bridge technology is much more than a prestressed concrete girder with external tendons. The Deh Cho Bridge in the Northwest Territories and the Canal Lachine Bridge in Montréal are two Canadian extradosed bridges featuring steel superstructures with slender composite concrete decks using full-depth precast panels. Although both bridges are very different, they share one important design aspect which governed the design of their superstructures: Both bridges are located in regions with prolonged extreme cold winter periods. Temperatures below 0 °C and cold weather periods lasting up to five months can be a major hindrance when erecting long bridges with conventional concrete superstructures. On the contrary, steel superstructures are light and can be quickly erected, even at cold temperatures without heating and hording given that field welding is avoided. To avoid delays along the critical path in the erection of major superstructures in extreme cold temperature zones, designers should consider erection schemes which make best use of short warm weather periods and reduce negative impacts related to harsh weather conditions as best as possible. -

Systematic Thesis on Network Arches 2013 by Per Tveit, Dr. Ing. Uia, Norway
Systematic Thesis on Network Arches 2013 By Per Tveit, dr. ing. UiA, Norway Co-authors: B. Brunn, M. Chan, W. Graße, F. Millanes, M. Ortega, R. Presland, R. Lee, L. Šašek, F. Schanack, P. Steere, G. Wollmann, T. Zoli. The author prefers network arches with concrete ties and H profiles in the arch. A network arch of this type normally saves around ⅔ of the steel weight needed for other steel bridges. If there are steel beams in the tie, around 1/3 of the steel weight is likely to be saved. Network arches look nice. Network arches have been designed in many different ways. See chapter H: Network arches built or planned. My main publication: “The Network Arch” can be found on my homepage: http://home.uia.no/pert/ under the button “The Network Arch”. It was started in 2000 and is the result of an organic growth. Thus readers will often have a hard time if they are seeking information on specific items. The present publication should be more readable and should lead interested readers more directly to what they are looking for. This publication can only be found on the internet. It will be updated at least till 2014. There are many references in the text. They are supposed to lead to more information on the same subject. Thus the system of references at the bottom of the page is important. Contents Chapter A is a general chapter. The network arch is an arch bridge where some hangers cross each other at least twice. The hangers give the arches efficient support and high buckling strength. -

Department, Sanjay Ghodawat Institutions, Atigre, Shivaji University, Kolhapur, India Abstract: This paper presents study of cable-stayed bridge and extradosed bridge. For analysis 100m, 150m, 200m, 250m and 300m spans are considered. Extradosed bridge is a novel idea bridge between Girder Bridge and cable-stayed bridge. This paper is concluded with study of various parameters of these types of bridges. The parametric study includes response of deck, deck moment, study of pylon, how the response of bridge varies span wise, from aesthetics point of view feasible bridge structure, pylon height and span length to thickness of girder ratio. The parameters of extradosed bridge are compared with cable-stayed bridge. Keywords: CSI Bridge, cable-stayed bridge, extradosed bridge, bending moment, shear force, pylon height, girder depth, aesthetic view. I. INTRODUCTION During XIX century, one of the most relevant contributions to bridge engineering has been the introduction of prestressed technique, which is a solution to the need of controlling stress on elements in bridges. Initially this technique was employed by means of internal and external prestressed tendons, until 1925 when modern cable-stayed bridges appeared –the Tempul Aqueduct, which was developed and built by Eduardo Torroja (Torroja, 1927). -

Extradosed/Cable-Stayed
CHAPTER 6: ENGINEERING CONCEPTS Image 6.5: Extradosed/ Cable Stayed Image 6.6: Extradosed/ Cable Stayed Extradosed/Cable-Stayed Enlargement The extradosed/cable-stayed bridge uses a series of cable-supported spans to cross the river with equal span lengths of approximately 300 feet, as shown in Figure 6.7. The superstructure would be supported by cables above the deck anchored at one end to a central pylon and at the other end to the edge of the deck. The towers or pylons would extend 48 feet above the deck. The deck elements could consist of either steel or concrete edge girders or concrete box girders. With a span length of 300 feet, it is anticipated that variable depth (haunched) girder elements would be practical and would provide optimal aesthetics, as shown in Figures 6.8 and 6.9. Figure 6.9 presents a full build concept that is designed to accommodate the widest cross section in the study, Alternative 8. The towers would consist of concrete elements located on the outside of the deck at the ends of each span. A variety of options are available for the arrangement of the superstructure cables. One advantage of extradosed or cable-stayed construction is that it is possible to perform the construction in a top-down fashion using balanced-cantilever erection. In this scenario, few if any temporary supports would be required in the Potomac River during construction. However, balanced cantilever construction results in significant unbalanced loads on the piers and foundations during construction, potentially resulting in larger and more expensive foundations. -
