Fairway Road Bridge Over the Grand River

Kitchener, Canada

This project involved the construction of the Fairway Road multi-span bridge segments that link Fairway Road in east Kitchener to Kossuth Road in north Cambridge, spanning 247 metres over land and the Grand River.

Our team provided full Construction Engineering Support services to Torbridge for the erection of this post-tensional, cast-in-place segmented concrete bridge. 

The bridge superstructure was to be constructed over the Grand River valley without any major shoring system over the water portion.

The main span of the bridge was constructed by the method of segmental bridge construction. Our team was responsible for the detail design of the segmental construction sequencing and the accounting of all relevant staged construction variables, including bridge launching machine loads, setting screed elevations to account for segmental cantilever deck deflections, PT jacking loads, and PT sequencing. The two end-span segments of the bridge were constructed over conventional shoring and formworks. Our team was responsible for the design of the shoring system and related formworks.
