San Francisco-Oakland Bay BridgeEast Span Seismic Safety Project
Self-Anchored Suspension Span consists of a 160-meter single steel tower with a main cable and inclined suspenders supporting two steel orthotropic decks of a 385-meter main span and a 180-meter back span. The workshop will concentrate onidentification of Constructability issues for the tower and orthotropic boxes. SAS Constructability Workshop 04-012064
Contractors that plan to bid 04-012064 SAS/YBI contract steel, fabrication firms that plan to submit estimates steel plate suppliers, and Caltrans Project Manager Participants
the capacity of the domestic steel market to produce plate steel for orthotropic boxes and tower what is fabricators ability to fabricate and transport pieces what affects contractors ability to bid the project due to the above issues Purpose is to identify
contractors Constructability concerns concerns with the tower “pick” Purpose is to identify
a noun Constructibility? Constructability?
public and construction safety improvements cost reductions and enhanced quality improved and shortened project schedule What can Constructability achieve?
Construction planning and Constructability analysis which integrates the diverse and quite often conflicting criteria into a coherent solution Constructability
