<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 12 km of low level piled slab viaduct structure crossing a peat swamp forest in the Temburong District (CC4 Contract).</p><p>The peat swamp forest has unique and endangered flora and fauna. The soil conditions consist of soft peat overlying soft marine clay with depths exceeding 70m. In order to permit a fast track construction method with minimal disturbance to the environment, the design required a simple yet innovative solution.</p><p>This paper describes the design of the viaducts, focusing on the development, decisions and details adopted to aid the construction method.</p>
<p>Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge (BCIB) in the Philippines is a proposed 32km sea-crossing which will connect Bataan and Cavite provinces, to unlock opportunity for economic growth and expansion outside Metro Manila. A Feasibility Study was carried out to plan the road link, which will involve two major navigation bridges, long marine viaducts, and interchange connections. This paper outlines the Feasibility Study, the navigation clearance study and the Preliminary Design of the crossing. It highlights how the navigation clearances were assessed and confirmed, and how the bridge options were evaluated in order to come up with an optimum solution.</p>
