bRIDGES - dETAILED DESIGN

Nanjing Metro Line 2 Eastern Extension Package 5
Atkins China Ltd was commissioned by the Designer, Beijing Urban Design and Research Institute to carry out an independent review of the 900m U-frame elevated viaduct for Nanjing Metro Line 2 Project. The superstructure was a prestressed reinforced concrete U-frame deck with typical span length of 25m, supporting a light-rail transit system. Atkins provided specialist bridge design advice. Detailed review was carried out in accordance with BS5400 and the latest international design practice advice such as recommendations of the Eurocode.

 
     

Ting Kau Bridge - Detailed Design of Deck and Global Analysis
As a subconsultant to Schlaich Bergermann und Partner, Atkins was responsible for carring out much of the global analysis for the deck and provided the design actions in the deck, cable and tower. Atkins designed the steel deck including the main longitudinal edge and cross girders and the composite deck slab.

Unique aspects for this project included automated detailing of the 2400 deck panels and the unique deck articulation arrangements.
 
     

Central Reclamation Phase III - Man Yiu Street Footbridge
Atkins in its role as the Engineer for the Central Reclamation project, carried out the detailed design and construction supervision of the interim Man Yiu Street Footbridge. The footbridge is one of the longest in Hong Kong which links the footbridge network and GPO building in Central, with the outlying island ferry piers and public piers.

Spans up to 52.5m cross obstacles such as the Central Wanchai bypass and the Airport Express overrun tunnels. Allowance is made in the alignment and spans for construction of the future structures and road network.
 
     

West Rail DD220 - Junction L Viaduct
Junction L Viaduct is a 226m long, 8 span prestressed post-tensioned in-situ concrete box girder viaduct in Hong Kong 's New Territories . Atkins was commissioned by the Kowloon to Canton Railway Corporation to carry out the detailed design and to prepare contract drawings and documents for this structure as part of Atkins' role on the Light Rail Extension and Grade Separation Scheme Project. The viaduct carried the light rail across a busy road junction, and supported an elevated station which linked to the adjacent housing blocks by elevated walkways.

 
     

West Rail DD220 Light Rail Grade Separation - Viaducts
This project included the detailed design and construction supervision of a 4.4km extension to KCRC's existing Light Rail network in Tin Shui Wai, 1.5km of viaducts in Tuen Mun and interchange with four West Rail Stations at Tuen Mun, Siu Hong and Tin Shui Wai. A high degree of construction quality was achieved through prefabrication of many deck elements and
maintenance costs were reduced through attention to design details. Many innovative ideas were adopted on this project saving our client capital costs and maximizing the revenue return by maintaining the operation of the light rail during construction and maximizing patronage through an innovative station design approach.

 
     

Sau Mau Ping Interchange
The interchange is the main approach road to the Junk Bay (later named Tseung Kwan O) Tunnel and allows grade separated movements between Sau Mau Ping,
the Lam Tin Housing Estate and the main Route 4 highway. The project included an attractive two-span post-tensioned in-situ concrete bridge, duel carriageway
highway, slip roads, extensive storm water drainage works, large scale earthworks and new and relocated
utilities.
