SITE LAYOUT
 SIGNATURTE BRIDGE
• Signature Bridge is a CABLE-STAYED BRIDGE consisting of 15 wires on main span and
4 on the other span
• PYLON, a support structure for
Suspension bridge or highway
• The PYLON consists of two legs
made of steel boxes which merge
into one upper pylon zone where
cable supporting the main span
• TERREX-DEMAG is the
machine being used for lifting
PYLON parts (15000 Tones steel)
PYLON BASE & STAY CABLE

• 8% silt is permissible limit

• Other tests-
Compaction test, Moisture content test,
Sieve analysis of all the aggregate,
Flakiness & Elongation, Impact Value test,
Soundness test, Specific Gravity etc.

Total of 104 sensors
171 data channels
 CONCLUSION
• The "Signature Bridge" as the new landmark of New Delhi
connects the city Wazirabad across the river Yamuna
• The automated monitoring system which is being provided for the
new Signature Bridge in Wazirabad will provide enormous
amounts of information which will enable the condition to which
the bridge is subjected, and the structure’s condition and
performance
• It is a good example of the type of comprehensive service which can
be provided by modern SHM systems
• It’s just like a SIGNATURE mark towards the progress of nation
