Abstract:Dongjiang River Bridge is built by using the mode of separating and widening on the left. The new bridge is 1 m away from the left (the upstream side) of the old bridge and is adjacent to the old expressway, which causes great inconvenience to construction, as pier 3# and pier 4# are in Dongjiang River. The water is about 12 m deep. The base slab is buried in the gravel bed about the depth of 5.5 m under the riverbed. The base slab is built by the super-long steel sheet pile cofferdam. The end of the base slab is 2.5 m thick, and the overall cofferdam construction depth reaches up to 20 m. Compared with similar projects which use double-wall steel cofferdam or lock steel tube construction, the steel sheet pile cofferdam construction is easier, faster and more cost-efficient and has some reference values for the construction of deep water buried structure in the future.
