Anno di completazione 2004

creato da Paul Dale - Ultima modifica 24/08/2010 08:03

Foster and Partners' Viaduc de Milleu is now the longest, highest cable-stayed bridge in the world. The £271 million Millau toll bridge was built by French construction firm Eiffage. Situated 272m above the Tarn Valley, it stretches 2.5km across the Massif Central.

Approx 100ft of Macalloy 1030 post-tensioning bar was supplied for temporary use:

  • 32/50/75mm used to fix the temporary red steel piles to the floor
  • 32mm used to tie the glued concrete segments together within the toll booths.

All material was supplied via Macalloy's distributor - Arteon; who also carried out the specialist on-site stressing of the post-tensioning bars.
