Mega Bridge, Industrial Ring Road, Thailand
Project data
Location: Bangkok, Thailand
bridge connection as part of the Industrial Ring Road IRR over the Chao Phraya river, motorway junctions lie in the middle
- construction: two cable-stayed bridges
- length: 702 m and 582 m
- height of the four pylons: 173 m and 164 m
- span width: 326 m and 398 m
- construction period: until 2006
Requirements
- simultaneous construction of four pylons
- sophisticated pylon geometry with complicated three-dimensional intersections due to forward and reverse inclinations
- inclining cross-section
- chamfered inner and outer edges
Customer

Taisei, Nishimatsu, NKK, Sino Thai
Customer's benefit
- concrete pouring in a weekly cycle
- not a large amount of substructure work on the ground
- high productivity due to safe and convenient work processes

The PERI formwork solution made a substantial contribution to the successful realisation of this project. The formwork adapted superbly to the changing cross-sections and different inclinations. High work-rate was achieved as a result of the safe and convenient work processes provided by the PERI ACS self-climbing formwork.
PERI solution
- crane-independent ACS self-climbing formwork
- coordinated formwork and platform execution on all standard concreting steps
- consideration of the cable outlets on the pylon heads
