    1. Background

    1.1 The Padma Multipurpose Bridge Project (PMBP), approximately 40 km south westof Dhaka, comprises a new fixed crossing of the Padma River in Bangladesh, which willconsist of a bridge approximately 6.15km long, major river training works and approximately13.6 km of approach roads and bridge-end facilities, including toll plazas, service areas andoffices. The main bridge structure would carry a 4-lane highway, and have provisions forfuture installation of a single track dual guage rail line as well as other facilities includinggas, power transmission and tele-communication lines. The main bridge is a two level steeltruss superstructure with road traffic on the upper level and rail on the lower level actingcompositely with a reinforced concrete deck slab. A brief description of the Main Bridge andRiver Training works (RTW) components of the project along with some schematic drawingsis provided in Attachment 1.

    1.2 A pre-feasibility study of the proposed project was undertaken in 1999 comprisingsurveys, studies, preliminary designs, cost estimating, economic and traffic evaluation. Thiswas followed by a feasibility study in 2003-2005 which comprised further studies andrecommended the crossing be built at a location between Mawa and Janjira. This feasibilitystudy formed the basis for the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) to proceed with the designand construction of the bridge. The project is divided into two phases: (i) Phase I- DetailedDesign and Contract Procurement; and (ii) Phase II -- Construction.

    1.3 The Design Consultants submitted the Final Design Report on July 5, 2011, whichhas been approved by the competent authorities. The bridge designs has been vetted by aseparate consulting firm hired as the Checking Engineers. The Final Design of all i,e 5contracts has been completed and Bid Documents prepared accordingly. The Government ofBangladesh has decided to take over/take up the project from its own fund. Accordingly3(three) of the 5(five) contracts i,e contract no-3 Janjira approach road and selected bridgeend facilities, contract no- 4 Mawa approach road & selected bridge end facilities andcontract no- 5 service area-2 has been awarded to the contractors and works are going onaccordingly. The current estimated total cost of the project is about US$ 2972.06 million.

    1.4 This document sets out the Terms of Reference (ToR) for Phase II, the constructionphase of the project.

    Summary Description of the PMBP

    The Padma Multipurpose Bridge Project (PMBP), approximately 40 km south west of Dhaka,comprises a new fixed crossing of the Padma River in Bangladesh, which will consist of abridge approximately 6.15km long, major river training works and approximately 13.6 km ofapproach roads and bridge-end facilities, including toll plazas, service areas and offices. Themain bridge structure would carry a 4-lane highway, and have provisions for futureinstallation of a single track dual guage rail line as well as other facilities including gas,power transmission and tele-communication lines. The main bridge is a two level steel trusssuperstructure with road traffic on the upper level and rail on the lower level actingcompositely with a reinforced concrete deck slab.

    The Project has been divided into 5(five) separate construction contracts and the wishesof the Government of Bangladesh, and will together comprise:

    ? the main bridge structure, which includes substantial pile foundation works and thebridge superstructure;

    ? approach viaducts at each end of the main bridge;? the approach bridge structures;? the approach embankments;? the approach road works to existing grade on the Northern approach;? the approach road works to connect into the existing N8 Highway on the Southern

    approach;

    ? bridge-end facilities on the North (Mawa) side including the toll plaza and toll collectionfacilities for southbound traffic and service area facilities for future operation andmaintenance staff;

    ? bridge-end facilities on the South (Janjira) side including the toll plaza and toll collectionfacilities for northbound traffic and service area facilities for future operation andmaintenance staff; and

    ? Major river training works upstream and through the bridge site.? Provision of other services and facilities like railway line, power transmission,

    telecommunication line, gas transmission pipe etc. as included in the final designdocuments.

    Brief description of the 2(two) main contracts (1) Main Bridge and (2) River TrainingWorks follow, along with some schematic drawings.

  • 71

    The Main Bridge ComponentsThe main bridge contract comprises two main components; a two-level steel truss bridgeacross the Padma River with a total length of 6.15 km; and 3.68 km of approach viaducts forroad (3.148 km) and rail (0.532 km).

    The total length of the main bridge is 6.15 km comprising 41 spans of 150m each. It isfounded on 42 piers comprising large diameter (3m) driven steel tubular or cased boredconcrete piles to a minimum depth of 100-115 m with cast in situ concrete pile caps andpiers.

    The superstructure comprises a two-level fabricated steel truss composite with a pre-stressedconcrete upper deck slab. The 4-lane road is on the upper level with a single track rail line onthe level below. The steel truss is of Warren Type with a typical panel point spacing of18.75m longitudinally. It is 13.5m wide and 12.7m deep which, combined with a 22m widecomposite deck slab, makes a total depth of 13.6m. The members of the steel truss aretypically welded rectangular hollow sections formed by steel plates, with thickness varyingfrom 20mm to 70mm.

    The road and rail viaducts at each end of the main bridge are 38m spans comprising precastpre-stressed concrete beams composite with cast in situ reinforced concrete deck slab.Substructure comprises reinforced concrete piers supported by reinforced concrete boredpiles.

    The River Training Works Component

    The river training works comprise the following:

    North Bank

    ? Guiding revetment along the river bank on dredged slope with falling apron at thetoe. The total length is around 1.5 km along the river bank and horizontal projectiontowards the river is around 170m. The revetment is designed on 1V:6H under waterslope and 1V:3.5H above water slope protection with geo-textile on top rock underwater and CC blocks above water. Falling apron in the form of riprap is around 25mwide at -25m PWD where the water level at the lean period is +2m PWD andhighest at the monsoon is around 6m PWD.

    South Bank

    ? Guiding revetment along the river bank on dredged slope with falling apron at thetoe. The total length is around 12km along the river bank and horizontal projectiontowards the river is around 180m. The revetment is designed on 1V:6H under waterslope and 1V:3.5H above water slope protection with geo-textile on top rock underwater and CC blocks above water. Falling apron in the form of riprap is around 25mwide at -25m PWD where the water level at the lean period is +2m PWD andhighest at the monsoon is around 6m PWD.
