| Abstract: |
The Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway is a road concession project with a crowning achievement: the 653.00-m long cable-stayed bridge between the islands of Cebu and Mactan. This bridge is the longest cable-stayed span in the Philippines, and its construction posed several unique challenges, such as high seismic activity, geological variability, and frequent typhoons. Furthermore, the busy navigation channel below the bridge had to be kept open throughout the building process. This paper provides an overview of the construction process, highlighting these distinctive difficulties. |
