Abstract
- The Renfrew Bridge, currently under construction in Scotland, is one of the most challenging designs for its engineers. The bridge features cable stays and pivots on slew bearings, with unequal cantilever lengths on either side of the pivot. The design was modified to meet budget constraints, resulting in a simplified design and reduced cost. The bridge will provide a direct link for car users, cyclists, and pedestrians, improving connectivity in the area. The construction process has involved coordination with multiple stakeholders and careful consideration of environmental impacts. The bridge is expected to be completed and handed over to the council in the autumn. [Extracted from the article]
