Construction Progress of the Rhine Bridge Duisburg-Neuenkamp

DEGES Deutsche Einheit Fernstraßenplaungs- und -bau GmbH has published a video on the construction progress of the Duisburg-Neuenkamp Rhine Bridge between June and December 2021. During this period, the auxiliary bridge piers were constructed and the launching of the steel superstructure started.

The new bridge will replace the old one by a double-span cable-stayed bridge with two separate superstructures and a main span of 380 meters. The two superstructures will be designed as a three-cell hollow steel box girder in the main span and as a steel composite cross-section in the side span. The external free-standing pylons with dynamic cross-section contours are monolithically connected to the bridge deck. The pylon cross-section changes from a hexagonal cross-section at the pylon base to an octagonal cross-section to a pentagonal cross-section at the pylon tip.
