The installation of section 35 of the Padma Bridge has become a matter of concern this time. Pillars 6 and 9 of the bridge at the Mawa end of Munshiganj are not deep enough. The floating crane cannot carry the span to the pillar. Uncertainty has arisen in the process of installing the section according to the specific schedule for it. Currently, efforts are being made to remove the silt by digging there and bringing it back to depth.
Meanwhile, today Friday, it was set as the day to place this period. However, as the navigability crisis in Pillar has not been resolved, the date for fixing the section has been set for Saturday and Sunday.
However, if depth is not returned, it will take longer, he said yesterday afternoon. The daily starWho informed the engineer source.
It is known that if the ‘Two-B’ section is installed, 5,250 meters of the bridge will be seen. If section 35 is installed, six sections will remain. This month three spans have been installed. The rest of the sections are on the edge of Mawa. The sections are kept in the Mawa construction yard.
Dewan Abdul Quader, executive engineer and project manager (main bridge) of the bridge Daily star“Even a few days ago, the water depth near pillars 8 and 9 was over 130 feet,” he said. But currently there is about two meters of water. If such a situation exists, it will not be possible to lay the span. To do this, excavation works are being carried out there. The decision will be made after removing the silt and increasing seaworthiness. However, a date has not yet been set for the installation of the section.
He added that a floating ‘Tian-e’ crane with a capacity of 3,600 tonnes is parked in the Mawa Construction Yard. The 150-meter-long gray section is embedded in it. All preparations for departure are being made.
According to engineering sources, section 36 ‘1-B’ on pillars 2 and 3 on November 4, section 36 ‘2-C’ on pillars 9 and 10 on November 11, section 36 on pillars 1 and 2 on November 16 ‘1-A’, 39th section ‘2-D’ on pillars 10 and 11 on November 23, 40th section ‘2-E’ on pillars 11 and 12 on December 2 and Last 41st section ‘2-F’ on December 10 will be on 12 and 13 In the numerical pillar.
