The bridge is a balanced cantilever structure, with central span of 457 meters, used 26500 tons of high-grade steel and was entirely fabricated at Kolkata to high precision as a riveted structure. The bridge is an example of the high-quality work that went into Bridge building in earlier years and offers unique design and detailing features. Current book covers all the engineering aspects of the structure explaining planning, design of super-structures, sub-structures and foundations along with fabrication and erection with a separate section on special features. Aimed at civil and bridge engineering students and graduate engineers, professionals, practising structural engineers as also heritage structure enthusiasts this book covers detailed case study and a thorough description of a well-known and iconic bridge. It covers planning process to design and construction aspects. Discusses section on conceptual design aspects and alternatives considered at the time of construction. Explains the planning of the foundations in a clayey silt river bed, subject to tidal variations, and design and construction of foundations, illustrates fabrication of steel work and use of pre-cambering principle.
