16.1.2 Determination of New Bridge Types for Outline Design
Bridge types to be conducted in the outline design are determined based on comparison study
considering multiple elements such as costs, structure advantage, constructability, environmental
impact and maintenance ability. The following flowchart shows the basic procedure of the
comparison study for selection of new bridge types.
STEP 1. Confirmation of ROAD CONDITION
- Cross Section of Bridge, Lane Arrangement
- Road Horizontal and Vertical Alignment
STEP 2. Confirmation of HYDRAULIC CONDITION
- Confirmation of River Condition From Interim Report
- HWL/ HTW for Navigation Clearance
STEP 3. Examination of SUBSTRUCTURE LOCATION
- Abutment Location
- Span Arrangement
STEP 4. Confirmation of BASIC CONCEPT
STEP 5. COMPARISON STUDY of New Bridge Types
- Extraction of Applicable Basic Types based on Actual Results
- Selection of Logically Suitable Types from above the Basic Types
- Applicability of Modern/ Rational/ Advanced Technological Types
- Comprehensive Comparison Study of New Bridge Types
Cost, Structure, Environment, Construction and Maintenance
Figure 16.1.2-1 Procedure of Comparison Study for Selection of New Bridge Types
For extraction of applicable basic types based on actual results shown at STEP 5 in the above
procedure, the following table regarding the relationship between actual results of basic bridge types
and span length is organized on the basis of '11 Design Data Book ('11 JBA Manual) and PC Bridge
Planning Manual ('2007 JPPCA).
Figure 16.1.2-2 Relationships between Actual Results of Basic Bridge Types and Span Length
16-7
(1) Lambingan Bridge
STEP 1. Confirmation of ROAD CONDITION
i) Bridge Width
For the cross section and lane arrangement of new bridge, the examined results of road planning
including approach roads shall be applied, shown as follows. For the current condition of Lambingan
bridge, a water pipe bridge, which is a trussed arch bridge, is currently located at 2.0m separated from
the existing road bridge for downstream side; thereby, adequate superstructure type without any
influence against the water pipe bridge even during construction phase shall be selected.
Figure 16.1.2-3 Cross Section/ Lane Arrangement of Lambingan Bridge
ii) Road Horizontal and Vertical Alignment
For horizontal and vertical alignment of new bridge, the examined results of road planning including
approach roads shall be applied, shown as follows. In the road planning, multiple planning in
consideration of river condition such as height of design flood level and required free board are
examined, from the conclusion of which the girder height of Lambingan bridge is restricted within
2.0m.
Figure 16.1.2-4 Vertical Alignment by Road Planning of New Lambingan Bridge
STEP 2. Confirmation of HYDRAULIC CONDITION
For hydraulic condition in the new bridge selection, the determined results in this project shall be
applied. From the result of hydraulic examination, existing free board and navigation width shall be
strongly secured from the aspect of safety of vessels.
16-8
STEP 3. Examination of SUBSTRUCTURE LOCATION
i) Location of Abutments for Simple Supported Bridge Type
For the location of abutments for simple supported bridge type, the abutment shall be planned at the
section, at which the wing walls of new abutments and existing retaining walls can be continuously
connected. Consequently, the bridge length for the simple supported bridge type can be resulted as
90m long.
Figure 16.1.2-5 Determination of Abutment Location of Lambingan Bridge
(Simple Supported Condition)
ii) Location of Abutments for 3-Span Continuous Bridge Type
2-Span and 4-Span bridges are negative to be applied in this location because the pier(s) would be
naturally installed in the center of the river. Therefore, following the above mentioned simple
supported bridge, applicability of 3-Span bridge type shall be considered in the multiple comparison
study. In case that the new piers were planned at the same location of existing piers based on
navigation condition, inadequate negative reactions would be caused at the abutments even in the
dead load condition due to ambulanced span arrangement. Thereby, the location of new abutments
shall be determined considering such the occasion.
16-9
Figure 16.1.2-6 Determination of Abutment Location of Lambingan Bridge (3-Span Condition)
iii) Span Arrangement in Comparison Study
Following figure shows the span arrangements using in comparison study, resulted from above
examination. 2-Span and 4-Span bridges are not included in the comparison study because they can
not absolutely meet the navigation and river required conditions.
Figure 16.1.2-7 Span Arrangements of Lambingan Bridge in Comparison Study
iv) Examination of Applicable Bridge Types Considering Construction Condition
Lambingan bridge is of urban bridge, the both sides of approach roads of which have a lot of houses
and buildings. Besides, other useful alternative bridges to be utilized as Detour bridge during
construction phase do not exist near Lambingan bridge. Thereby, the adequate construction method is
required not to affect existing traffic flow and residential removal. Based on such the background,
following construction methodologies are compared in consideration of two of construction
conditions such as Stage Construction and Total Construction.
16-10
< STAGE CONSTRUCTION>
The construction method to elect new bridge separately
Figure 16.1.2-8 Construction Steps of Stage Construction
<Advantage>
- No need secure detour roads such as other alternative bridge or temporary bridge
- Minimum residential removal
<Disadvantage>
- Complicated construction steps and longer schedule, rather than Total Construction
- Limited superstructure type because even 1st phase structure should meet live loads influences.
< TOTAL CONSTRUCTION>
In order to secure existing traffic flow, detour road such like temporary bridge across the river is to be
utilized and all of structure will be erected after demolishing the existing structure.
Figure 16.1.2-9 Detour Temporary Bridge under Total Construction Method
<Advantage>
- Erection schedule is to be shorter and familiar method is available to applied
- Structurally rational superstructure can be designed
<Disadvantage>
- A temporary detour bridge is required to secure existing wide navigation width (W=60m)
- The span length of the temporary detour bridge is needed over 61m, which may be extremely
expensive because familiar structure can not apply.
- Influence of residential removal may be quite significant due to detour road and its approaches
16-11
Based on the above comparison, application of the total construction may not be realistic method;
hence, the selection of bridge type of Lambingan bridge shall be examined based on the stage
construction method.
STEP 4. Confirmation of BASIC CONCEPT
The basic concept resulted from above STEP 1 to STEP 3 is enumerated. The basic concept may be
significantly important factor for bridge selection under the comparison study.
New abutments locations are newly and carefully determined in consideration of existing and
planning condition around the location
Existing navigation width and navigation height shall be strictly secured.
Based on road alignment examination, the girder height should be kept within 2.0m to secure
the existing navigation clearance
The longest span of New Bridge: 90m (Simple), 61m (3-Spans)
2-Span or 4 or more Span bridge not applicable
In the Comparison Study of New Bridge Type, the concept of bridge construction should be
reflected into the evaluation. Stage construction method is applicable to this bridge
STEP 5. COMPARISON STUDY of New Bridge Types
i) Extraction of Applicable Basic Types based on Actual Results
Based on the basic concept and several conditions, applicable bridge types are extracted from the table
of Relationships between Actual Results of Basic Bridge Types and Span Length, shown as follows.

16-12
ii) Selection of Logically Suitable Types from above the Basic Types
Steel Truss bridge shall be included in one of the candidates. 2.0m of girder height is realizable.
Because Floor system and trusses are separated structurally, connection between 1st and 2nd phase
structures is smoothly executable using simple counter weights. Structurally 3-face truss type should
be applied due to stage construction method.
3-span continuous steel deck box girder bridge shall be included in one of the candidates. 2.0m of
girder height is realizable.
Simple steel Langer and Lohse arch bridges shall not be included in the detail comparison study.
General Langer and Lohse arch bridges consist of 2 of arch ribs and floor system that is structurally
separated and that is installed between the two arch ribs. Therefore, to realize stage construction, 3-
arch-rib structure system should be applied. Consequently, in case of application of such the 3-arch-
rib system, absolutely it will be much more expensive than the above truss bridge.
As structurally rational bridge type, other rational arch type bridge that arch ribs stiffen girder type
bridge may be applicable. Thus, simple supported steel Lohse arch stiffening steel deck box girder
bridge would be efficiently applicable to be included as a candidate, which is obviously erectable in
this site. 90 m of span length of the steel deck box girder can not be applicable in this site because the
girder height will be over 3.0m high, otherwise, application of steel Langer or Lohse arch bridges are
as mentioned above concern about expensive costs. Therefore, the effectiveness of such the rational
structure may be absolutely confirmed. Structurally separated Lohse stiffened box girders are needed
because of application of stage construction; however, by applying same structures to 1st and 2nd
phase superstructure types, connection between them is smoothly executable using simple counter
weight.
PC cable stayed bridge and simple supported concrete Lohse arch bridge will be naturally the most
expensive bridge type in this site, and there are no land spaces where stiffening concrete arch or
towers can be constructed. Therefore, such the bridge types are not realistic bridge type to be included
into the detail comparison study. Additionally, 3 span RC slab steel box girder and PC box girder can
not be applicable because the girder height will be beyond 3.0m which can not meet the road and river
required condition.
Based on the above evaluation, multiple comparison study is conducted considering cost, structure,
environmental impact, constructability and maintenance ability.

Based on the evaluation, shown in the comparison table, the recommendable bridge type for outline
design is Simple Supported Lohse Arch Stiffening Steel Deck Girder Bridge.
iii) Selection of Logically Suitable Types of Bridge Foundations
In the study on selection of bridge foundation, study of site conditions for selecting an appropriate
foundation type is a key discussion.
The site conditions are shown in below table. In the abutment, particularly it was located very close to
existing abutment, meanwhile, the Pier foundation is located very close to navigation channel.
