Route 541, Shafiim

Project: Microsoft-4006
City: Shafiim
 Contractor:Denya Building Israel
The purpose of the project:
Planning an engineering solution for a car bridge.

Main construction:

The length of the bridge: 64 m with an 8% gradient The width of the bridge: 16 m with a slope of 3%.
The bridge is uphill, sloping in both directions and in a turn.

Key data that is important to know about this special project:

The thickness of the concrete: 150 cm at a height of 12 m from the floor (with variable height)

The weight of the bridge: 2930 tons – the weight of the concrete 2750 tons and the weight of the steel 180 tons.

11,000 cubic meters of concrete were poured for the bridge over 14 hours.

The Alumlite Group accompanies the project from the beginning of the process which included: planning, arrival of equipment to the field, training of employees on the use of Alumlitgjt systems and full accompaniment by a project manager until the successful completion of the project.

The following Alumlight systems were used in the project:

Alumax system:

designed to support the ceiling of the bridge, with a special production of a “bathtub shape” using the following accessories:

  • Alumax molds

  • Production of special fasteners

  • Aluminum liger 14 cm

  • 2 cm plywood

Aluminum Support Towers:

designed to support the weight of the bridge with horizontal loads, which were reinforced with the following accessories:

  • Horizontal and diagonal tie pipes that connect all the towers together
    
  • A 6 m diagonal foot that connects the towers to the concrete blocks to prevent horizontal displacement
  • A tension belt that ties the molds to the concrete blocks to prevent horizontal displacement during casting
