New Delhi, India:- The National High-Speed Rail Firm Limited (NHSRCL) attained a considerable landmark by effectively setting up the very first steel bridge, spanning an outstanding 70 meters in size, throughout National Freeway 53 in Surat. This marks the preliminary action in the building of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Passage (MAHSRC).
The job imagines an overall 28 steel bridges, using an estimated 70,000 metric lots of defined steel. These steel bridges will certainly vary in span length, varying from 60 meters ‘just supported’ to a remarkable 230 (130 + 100) meters of ‘constant span.’
Talking with ANI about this bridge construction, Satyaprakash Mittal, Principal Task Manager of MAHSRC said that in a testimony to India’s expanding technical as well as material capabilities, the construction of these steel bridges straightens with the ‘Make-in-India’ vision, combining Japanese experience with regional resources. This venture highlights India’s prowess in building steel bridges with the ability to support Shinkansen Bullet trains, achieving rates of as much as 320 kilometers per hr.
He additionally claimed that the setting up procedure included careful planning and precision, with the steel structure being transferred over 1200 kilometers from the Hapur district near Delhi to the setup website. As soon as ready at the workshop, the steel framework, which contains nearly 700 items as well as 673 Metric tonnes, was transported on trailers to the website of setup.
“At the site, the Steel Bridge of 12 to 14 meters in elevation was set up on the staging over 10- to 12-meter-high piers. After that the launching nose of approx. 200 metric loads weight was constructed with the main bridge assembly. With substantial treatment and proficiency, the Bridge Setting up was drawn to its desired span with a particularly designed pulling plan under the total traffic block on National Highway,” Mittal claimed.
Significantly, each production batch of steel was evaluated by Ultrasonic Screening (UT) at the supplier’s premises.
The construction procedure included cutting, exploration, welding, and a five-layered paint method adapting Japan Roadway Organization’s “Handbook for Corrosion Defense of Steel Roadway Bridges”.
This success sets an amazing precedent in the building and construction of high-speed rail corridors in India, moving the country right into a new era of innovative framework growth.
National High-Speed Rail Firm Limited (NHSRCL) was included on 12th February 2016 under the Business Act, 2013 with the object of financing, constructing, preserving as well as handling the High-Speed Rail Hallway in India.
