Project Overview This monumental project involved the construction of the Narmada River Bridge in Bharuch, a critical infrastructure development with a project cost of 309 Crore. The bridge is designed to significantly enhance connectivity across the Narmada River, easing traffic flow and supporting regional growth. It comprises distinct river and viaduct portions, each engineered with specialized structural solutions to navigate the unique challenges of the terrain and water body.

Casad's Scope of Work Casad played a pivotal role as the detailed design consultant for the Narmada River Bridge project, demonstrating expertise across all critical design phases.

• Comprehensive Structural Design: Casad was responsible for the detailed structural design of both the river and viaduct portions of the bridge. This included the intricate design of pile foundations, PSC Segmental Box Girders for the river section, and PSC Cast in Situ Box Girders for the viaduct section.

• Engineering Analysis: Performing rigorous engineering analysis to ensure the structural integrity, stability, and longevity of the entire bridge, considering hydrological, geotechnical, and load-bearing requirements.

• Drawing & Documentation: Preparing all necessary detailed design drawings and technical specifications to guide the construction process, ensuring accuracy and adherence to design parameters.

• Material Specification: Recommending and specifying appropriate materials for all components, optimizing for performance, cost-effectiveness, and environmental factors.
  

Capabilities in Action This project exemplifies Casad's advanced capabilities in major river bridge design and complex segmental construction.

• River Bridge Specialization: Extensive experience in designing large-scale river bridges over challenging water bodies, including intricate foundation and superstructure solutions.

• PSC Box Girder Expertise: Proven proficiency in designing both segmental and cast-in-situ pre-stressed concrete box girders, optimizing for span lengths and construction methods.

• Integrated Design Approach: Ability to integrate different structural typologies (river bridge and viaduct) into a cohesive and efficient overall design.

• Detailed Design Consultancy: Delivering high-quality, comprehensive design solutions that meet stringent technical specifications and regulatory requirements
