Indian Railways for the construction of viaduct superstructures of 508 km long, Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Project (MAHSR) has successfully launched the indigenously designed and manufactured-‘Full Span Launching Equipment-Straddle Carrier and Girder Transporter’ to expedite the construction of viaduct for Mumbai- Ahmedabad High Speed Rail corridor.
This technology will expedite the process of launching girders as the precast girders of full span length will be erected as a single piece for double track viaduct. Full Span Launching Methodology (FSLM) is used world over as it is faster than the segment by segment launching method, usually adopted for the construction of viaducts for themetro system.
