Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

You normally start with preparing a temporary traffic management or arrangement scheme (TTM or TTA) in the area for approval by the relevant Authorities.

typical construction activities:

1. Piling

2. Pile Load Test

3. Pile Trimming

4. Pile Cap

5. Cast Column

6. Cast Column Head and Bearings

Now it depends what kind of design you have (precast segments (post tension), precast T beams, Cast in Situ, etc.)

7. Say we use precast T Beams lift in place

7. Construct Bridge Deck, Drainage & Parapet

8. Final wearing course and road markings

The construction of the ramps can be done in parallel.

Good luck!
