The document discusses the construction of a flyover. It defines a flyover as a bridge that carries one road or railway line above another. It distinguishes flyovers from bridges and lists the key components of a flyover, including piles, pile caps, piers, girders, deck slabs, and road pavement. The presentation concludes by outlining some merits of flyovers like reduced traffic congestion and pollution, but also notes some demerits such as high costs and increased losses in the event of accidents.

Mr. Ganesh Nimbark NATWAR SINGH 18EEJCE023 Department Of Civil Engineering CONTENT INTRODUCTION DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FLYOVER AND BRIDGE TYPES OF FLYOVER COMPONENT OF FLYOVER MERITS AND DEMERITS OF FLYOVER INTRODUCTION A Flyover is a bridge road ,railway , or similar structure that crosses over another road or railway. It is a bridge that carries one road or railway line above another either with or without subsidiary roads, for communication between the two sides. A Flyover is a structure which connects two points which are already accessible and is really flying over or across manmade structures such that road, railway , building , street. It consist of deck slab longitudinal girders , cross girders, deck beam pier and foundation. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FLYOVER AND BRIDGE BRIDGE
The drainage structure which facilitates a communication
route for carrying a road or railway traffic across an obstruction or depression with or without water is called a bridge. 2. Bridge is a structure that is built over natural obstructions such as rivers, valleys to connect two locations separated by these obstructions. 3. Bridges are further classified on the basis of their purpose, Lifespan, materials, span, etc. Bridges are used for navigating traffic across the obstruction, to navigate pipelines, and other forms of transport. FLYOVER
Flyover is an overpass, a high-level road bridge that
crosses over a highway interchange or intersection. They are usually made over road junctions, roads, streets, etc.
The name itself suggests that you are flying over a
traffic zone.
They are usually built for road vehicles.
TYPES OF FLYOVER COMPONENT OF FLYOVER PILE As we know PILE is a column (of reinforced concrete) which transfers the load of superstructure directly to the soil strata. PILE - CAP A thick concrete mat that rests on piles collectively to provide a suitable stable foundation is Pile Cap. It is 1.8m thick and 5.2m wide PIER A vertical supporting structure over pile cap is Pier Shaft. The thickness is provided according to drawings BENT BEAM Abutment are typically used where column lengths on multi-column piers will require larger column sizes due to slenderness. Abutment are also an option where stream flow could result in debris build- up between columns of a multicolumn. CONCRETE PAD It is an independent support of bearing over pier / abutment cap BEARING PAD Bearing pads are used widely in precast concrete parking garages. They function as buffers between the separate concrete members to prevent damage and facilitate movement (much like cartilage between bones at joints). GIRDER It is a support beam used in construction. It is the main horizontal support of a structure which supports smaller beams. Girders often have an I-beam cross section composed of two load-bearing flanges separated by a stabilizing web, but may also have a box shape, Z shape, or other forms. DECK SLAB A slab deck is one where the deck is analyzed as a plate. A beam and slab deck is one where the beams may deflect somewhat independently, and any transverse forces are carried in the deck. ROAD PAVEMENT It is one type of hard surface made from durable surface material laid down on an area that is intended to carry vehicular or foot traffic. Its main function is to distribute the applied vehicle loads to the sub-grade through different layers. MERITS AND DEMERITS MERITS Flyovers play a major role in streamlining the traffic control system. Through flyovers plenty of time is saved avoiding congestion. Pollution effect is reduced. Flyovers reduce the risk of accidents. Flyovers also contribute a lot to the aesthetics of the city. The persons traveling on the flyover can enjoy the panoramic view of the city. DEMERITS Flyovers are not as a rule suitable for built up areas as they require a large area and also it is costly. Lack of proper management in the flyover construction may cause many problems. Loss in the case of accidents is increased. The risk of accidents is reduced but in case an accident occurs the loss may be more. So, it's ironical that the flyover has become a liability here instead of an assed for the city.
