Which type of foundation is used in sea link project bridge?
< strong>contact pressure is the pressure between footing end and soil strata where we rest the footing. we should have safe contact pressure to avoid foundation failure like (punching failure, shear failure, excessive settlement of the foundation, etc. ) it is express by load per area it isRead more
< strong>contact pressure is the pressure between footing end and soil strata where we rest the footing.
we should have safe contact pressure to avoid foundation failure like (punching failure, shear failure, excessive settlement of the foundation, etc. )
it is express by load per area
it is depending on
- elastic property of soil
- type of foundation either flexible or rigid
- type of soil and its various property

Most commonly, they use reinforced pile. For e.g., Bandra Worli sea link. The foundations for the BWSL's cable-stayed bridges consist of 120 reinforced concrete piles of 2,000 mm (6.6 ft) diameter. Those for the viaducts consist of 484 piles of 1,500 mm (4.9 ft). These 604 piles were driven betweenRead more

Those for the viaducts consist of 484 piles of 1,500 mm (4.9 ft). These 604 piles were driven between 6m and 34m into the substrata in geotechnical conditions that varied from highly weathered volcanic material to massive high strength rocks.
