Railways’ ambitious project of a second bridge parallel to Pamban bridge is set to take off in another few months. The new bridge will cost INR 250 crore and come up at a location which is known as the second most corrosive region in the world after Florida in the US.
In order to tackle the problem of corrosion and other maintenance-related issues, Railways has decided to use duplex stainless steel as an integral component for the fabrication of four girders of the new bridge. To this effect, the Rail Vikas Nigam Limited, an engineering arm of Railways, which has been entrusted with the task of building the bridge, has invited bids to procure 120 tonnes of stainless steel.
The new Pamban viaduct will have 100 spans of 18.3-metre steel girders (1.83 km) and one navigational span of 72.5 metres. It will be three metres higher than the existing bridge with navigational air clearance of 22 metres above sea level. Because of vertical lift, full horizontal width of 72.5 metres will be available for navigation of ships and vessels 不锈钢展-2019第二十届广州国际不锈钢工业展-效果最好的不锈钢展会-The 20th China(Guangzhou)Int''l Stainless Steel Industry Exhibition - Stainless Steel exhibition,2019 Stainless Steel exhibition, China Stainless Steel exhibition, Guangzhou Stainless Steel expo,Guangzhou Stainless Steel exhibition, 2019 Stainless Steel expo, China Stainless Steel expo
