We are very proud to contribute to the construction of a second cable-stayed bridge in Bangkok and a new crossing of the Chao Phraya River that will improve traffic flow in Bangkok.
We would like to thank our client and partner CH. Karnchang for their trust and for the excellence of our exchanges, which allowed us to build a successful offer with a good knowledge of the needs and technical challenges.”
The clevis anchorages for the Rama III bridge are being prepared just before they are shipped in November 2021. These anchorages are specially adapted to thin pylons and allow for easy adjustment of cable lengths after installation.
