Culverts at Douglas Shopping Centre, Cork
16/09/2008
Douglas Shopping Centre in Cork was the site for the installation of these specialised precast culvert units. Acting as sub-contractors to Bowen Group, ABM Bridge Systems were required to design, supply and install these bespoke culvert components with transfer structures at roof level within the culvert. The site was testing in that site access was limited and restricted which created a number of challenging constraints.
The Tramore River Culvert was a 3.0 metre span x 2.5 metre rise x 160 metre long precast concrete box. It also entailed a separate 8.5metre span x 2.5 metre rise x 115 metre long precast inverted U-shaped units on precast footing units. A Reckli finish was provided on the exposed surfaces within the open channel.
The Ballybrack River Culvert was provided as a 3.2 metre span x 1.6 metre rise x 90 metre long structure with a rough stone finish at the southern end of the culvert.
