| Popis: |
Norwegian Public Roads Administration is building Farris Bridge on European road 18 in Larvik. The total length of the Farris Bridge is 570 m. EPS Geofoam is used in the bridge abutments. Ordinary stone embankments as bridge abutments would have created large settlements. Use of EPS Geofoam is also a very economical alternative compared to a piled embankment inside the abutment. The total volume of EPS in the bridge abutments is 11,000 m3, with 4000 m3 in abutment east and 7000 m3 in abutment west. The quality of EPS used is mainly with strength 180 kPa. In some highly stressed zones of the embankments, the strength of EPS is 300 kPa. Result of testing for quality control is included in the article. |
