Padma Multipurpose Bridge, Bangladesh
A total of 37 Additional Studies were identified and undertaken during the detailed design phase of the project
at a cost of approximately USD $7.5 million. These studies were required to reduce uncertainty associated
with technical, program and commercial aspects of the project.
These studies encompassed a traffic study, topographic and bathymetric surveys, geotechnical investigations,
baseline environmental surveys, census surveys, physical model studies for the river training works and
river morphology.
An accompanying paper describes in detail the extensive geotechnical investigations being undertaken for
the main bridge foundations.
