The Miraflores Bridge Over the River Guadalquivir in Córdoba (Spain)
The present work has been an intricate collaboration between architecture and engineering. The basic idea envisaged the bridge assembly as a large minimalist sculpture set over the river. The system is formed by two very sturdy elements which are simple in form: (1) A large rectangular prismatic bar in weathering steel, serving as the deck; (2) A central element with a sharply tapered lenticular section, serving as the central pier and set orthogonally to the deck and parallel to the river current, with a stone external facing. In order to obtain the great slenderness demanded by the design, it was necessary to place a triple internal structural mechanism: (1) Elastic encasing cells at both abutments. (2) Rigid connection between pier and deck. (3) External prestressing at mid-span and over the central pier. The cross-section consists of two lateral box girder elements with double composite action connected by transversal composite trusses.
