The Barqueta Bridge ( Spanish : Puente de la Barqueta ) is a tapered arch bridge that spans the Guadalquivir in Seville , Spain .

The four-lane road bridge was designed and planned for the 1992 Expo by the Spanish engineers Juan J. Arenas de Pablo and Marcos J. Pantaleón Prieto.

construction

The main bridge of the 214 m long bridge is a tied arch bridge with a span of 168 m. The arch, 27.8 m high and 2.7 m wide, is arranged in the middle plane of the bridge and spreads out at its ends over a length of 30 m in triangular portal frames. 17 hangers are arranged on the arch at a distance of 6.75 m, their inclinations vary. They support the box girder of the deck at a distance of 8.5 m. At a height of 2.4 m, the steel box girder has a trapezoidal cross-section with an orthotropic deck . This was 16 m wide at the time of completion, but can be subsequently widened by 2.5 m on both sides.
