Abstract

1392463 Wells etc; subaqueous structures NORCONSULT AS 29 March 1972 [2 April 1971] 14853/72 Headings E1F and E1H A submerged tunnel bridge comprises sections 16, 20 which in use have approximately neutral bouyancy, and at least two pontoons 12 which in use are buoyant and are anchored to the sea bed. The pontoons are anchored by adjustable cables 6, 4, and have a floor 26 for auxilary equipment such as pumps. The sections 16 are reinforced, prestressed concrete. The fixing of the anchoring pontoons to the tunnel sections may be carried out prior to or subsequent to the submersion of the bridge. Anchoring in addition to the pontoon anchoring may be provided.
