 Technical & Construction Advancement of PSC Girder on Box
Girder (Banas Bridge)
Due to site constants and enhance constructions quality and time line it is
recommended to go with PSC I Girder rather than box girder. Following comparison
may be noted for the satisfy our assumption.

BOX GIRDER PSC I GIRDER

If we go with the box girder it will be cast
in situ and hence, we have to provide
staging supporting form the river bed
which is very difficult and time consuming
with the project time line.
The flow of water in river is non
predictable, hence providing staging from
river bed is non-operational in case of
heavy water flow time.
Precast PSC I girder can be erected by
crane. No staging requirement on river bed.
This lead to faster construction and better
control over the time line. The in-situ Deck
slab casting can also be done without
staging with the help of precast plank.
Pre -cast PSC I girder can be erected in very
short time during no water flow time in the
river

Setting up base for staging in river bed is No Staging required as it is Precast.

very huge work and it requires special
technical requirements and time.

During the construction of existing The proposed casting yard is in the river of

to continues scouring in past years. The
level has been decreased which in results
increased height staging requirement
