Olympic Grand Bridge, Seoul, South Korea

The Olympic Grand Bridge was built as cable-stayed bridge with the free cantilever method, symmetrically starting from the pylon by means of a cantilever equipment developed by VCE.
The stay cables are arranged fan-like in the centre of the structure and were stressed from the 88 m high pylon. The form of the pylon head symbolises the Korean imperial crown.
For this project VCE obtained the Austrian Award for International Consulting awarded by the Austrian Ministry for Economic Affairs.
