Formworks Travelers for Two Different Types of Reinforced Concrete Arch Bridges
Abstract There are several types of reinforce arch bridges and their construction method is highly influenced by its design. The aim of this article is to present the construction method of two singular concrete arch bridges: Don Enrique Bridge, in Oporto, Portugal; and the Almonte Bridge, in Caceres, Spain. Both case studies are already constructed. The construction methods in both cases are different since it was the result of the combination of design of the bridge and boundary conditions and restrains present on construction site. However, in both cases the construction method is based on the balance cantilever bridge construction, applied to arch concrete typologies. It is important to highlight that in arch bridges typologies, the construction methods are more complex than the rest of bridge types, because of the need of controlling deflection, geometry variability and launching processes. Almonte traveler was designed as underslung structure while Don Henrique as upper structure (composed by 2 independent structures). In both cases, the formwork structures were designed, manufactured and supervised by Rubrica.
