Puente Lurín Bridge | Lima, Peru

Triumphs & Challenges for Lurin Bridge Reconstruction?

The Lurin Bridge accommodates over 30,000 vehicles daily, connecting the city center to the beach towns in southern Lima. 3F Constructora E.I.R.L was awarded the contract for reconstructing the bridge to facilitate the increased flow of traffic. The initial design used precast beams, but due to an unforeseen issue on site, the original beams were not able to be used. With only 25 days remaining before traffic resumed on the bridge, a new design was developed.??

EFCO’s aluminum E-Z SHORE? has a capacity from 16 to 28 kips (71 kN to 124.5 kN) per leg with a 2.5:1 safety factor.

EFCO Provides Quick Solution?

3F Constructora partnered with EFCO, using the lightweight E-Z DECK? system and SUPER STUD? towers to support and provide stability for the jobsite-built beam formwork. The work platform had to accommodate varying grade changes ranging from 1500 mm (5‘-0”) to 4780 mm (15’-8 1/4”) and span over the Rio Lurin. With a secure work platform, 3F Constructora was able to secure the beams to prevent any overturning while installing the slab formwork.?

“We contacted EFCO to provide us with formwork and shoring alternatives for the Lurin Bridge project. EFCO recommended the E-Z DECK shoring system. With their advice on solutions and in the field, we were able to overcome impasses that occurred during construction and deliver the work according to the deadlines committed to our client.” ? - Oscar Navarro, 3F Job Engineer?

Bridge Slab Support Ensures Stability?

Z-BEAMS?, E-BEAMS?, and Strong Arm Hangers were used to efficiently support the concrete slab. Utilizing the strength of E-BEAMS, EFCO engineers were able to design the support of the 200 mm (8”) thick slab with E-BEAMS at 500 mm (20”) centers, reducing material and labor. Hanging Z-BEAM and E-BEAM work decks allowed for the cast-in-place diaphragms to be placed with the bridge deck formwork.?

Galvanized steel E-BEAM? joists bolt to Z-BEAM? stringers and are excellent structural members to fasten plywood to for slab and deck forming.
