The general arrangement of superstructure is shown in the Figure 1. Five longitudinal girders are proposed with 3.0m C/C. These Each longitudinal girders are placed over POT-PTFE /Elastomeric bearings. The thickness of deck slab is considered 220mm it. The total width of superstructure is 26.0m. The cross girder/Diaphragm is provided at the support location.
