Manari Bridge Design
The Manari Bridge (Pomeroon, Guyana) was designed in accordance with AASHTO LRFD. The deck slab and steel girders were designed as a composite to carry the HL-93 and lane loads and the hydro-dynamic forces of the Manari River. The substructure was designed to carry the dead and imposed loads of the superstructure and included scour protection to the abutments and pier. The pier was designed with a shallow footing, while the abutments consisted of a piled foundation. The superstructure consisted of reinforced concrete beams, columns (for high-level bridges), and pile caps. CBA also monitored the construction.
