Cable Stayed Bridge, 2019,
  • United States

The Scioto River Pedestrian Footbridge is a major suspended footbridge located in
Dublin, Ohio. The footbridge crosses the Scioto river and is the perfect connection between the historical centre of the city and the brand-new quarter that is set to become one of the new hot spots in the city. The main characteristics of this footbridge are its concrete mast shaped as a needle, the S-shaped deck, the hangers that are connected only to one side of the deck, as well an overall very light design.

Because of its unique design, the bridge has become the icon of the city and the symbol of the two quarters that it connects. Teufelberger-Redaelli has designed, supplied and installed the two main cables, the tie down cable, and the hanger system including clamps and specifically designed spherical pins and washers to accommodate high rotations of the cables and sockets respect to the anchoring plate under live load events.
