Introducing the Great Ruaha Bridge in Tanzania, currently under construction!
This 133m long symmetrical steel girder structure gracefully spans the river with its 41-51-41m spans, supported by two mid-piers and two abutments, all founded on shallow footings, which sit on the bedrock.
The construction of this impressive bridge utilizes the incremental launching method, allowing for seamless construction without obstructing the river’s flow.
