<p>The new 30 km Cadangan Projek Jambatan Temburong (Temburong Bridge Project) in Brunei will connect the relatively isolated district of Temburong with the more developed Brunei-Muara district. The project includes over 14 km of marine viaducts crossing Brunei Bay which will be built under Construction Contract CC2.</p><p>The shallow waters of Brunei Bay, very soft ground conditions and a fast track programme pose significant challenges to both design and construction. Maximising the use of precast concrete and the repetition of details are key to delivering the scheme in an economical and timely manner.</p><p>The vast majority of foundations are groups of spun concrete piles. The superstructure will be in the form of twin post-tensioned concrete single-cell, box girders with 50m spans, built by span-by- span erection method.</p>
<p>The new 30 km Cadangan Projek Jambatan Temburong (Temburong Bridge Project) in Brunei will connect the relatively isolated district of Temburong with the more developed Brunei-Muara district. The project includes approximately 3.6 km in Brunei-Muara district where the new road will pass through the Mentiri hills. This section will be built under Construction Contract CC1 and includes 3 twin-bore lengths of tunnel and various bridge structures. Design is to Eurocode.</p><p>The tunnels are in hard soils / weak rock and will be the first mined tunnels to be built in Brunei. The tunnel portals incorporate Islamic shapes to continue the architectural theme of the project.</p><p>Bridges will link the different tunnels together and form the free-flow connections to an existing dual carriageway at the north-west end of the scheme.</p>
<p> The new 30km Cadangan Projek Jambatan Temburong (Temburong Bridge Project) in Brunei will connect the relatively isolated district of Temburong with the more developed Brunei-Muara district. Improved connectivity will enhance the movement of labour, goods and services to and from Temburong, and will facilitate the development of eco-tourism in the area.</p><p> The paper describes the objectives of the project, the project planning, the procurement strategy and the design for the various structures. Details are provided on the overall design criteria following Eurocodes, the seismic analysis, and the construction planning.</p>
<p>Temburong district has been physically isolated from the rest of Brunei which has hindered the economic growth of the district. A sea-crossing link is being constructed to connect the district to Brunei-Muara. A feasibility study was carried out between 2010 and 2012 to establish the alignment and preliminary design of the link, followed by detail design and construction. This paper describes aspects of the feasibility study, detail design and construction</p>
<p>In the fast developing world, where big cities expand and grow rapidly, there is desire from the public to experience nature, whilst still being surrounded and possibly even overwhelmed by the city jungle. Therefore, The Kai Tak Development (KTD) master plan has been introduced by the Hong Kong Government to develop the site of the historical international airport and create a sustainable environment, which cultivates a comprehensive network of parks for everyone.</p><p>This paper discusses how the KTD master plan has been expressed in the design of the Landscaped Deck, which was proposed by the creative team (the Team) comprising of VINCI Construction Grant Projects (VCGP), Ove Arup and Partners (ARUP) and VASCONI Architects (VASCONI).</p>
