BOD Ref. No. 000361

Provide connection of helical rings to substructure at both supports on the plan, specifically the type of bearing to be used. Consider high-damping rubber bearings, subject to
verification as to structural design and its applicability

20

BOD Ref. No. 000361

Structural model and complete design calculations of the iconic bridge should be submitted for verification of results. Also, submit summary of design forces used in design
calculations.

SY2 / AIT to provide response on Feb. 25, 2015

SAP200 model is provided. Maximum DC ratio in of the

primary ring, Top chords and end frame has been provided
in the design report. For secondary rings and Braces and
ties, please refer from the model.
