Comparison method of segmental box girder (SBG) erection using launching gantry and trestle in MRT project

Launching Techniques method will never become the most economical procedure for constructing all elevated structure or bridges. The launching process of the segmental box girder (SBG) is very complicated with sensitive and frequent changing structure loading performance. This research uses a compreh...
