Abstract
The Serio River Bridge is one of the most significant applications of the incremental launch construction technique in Italy, and one of the few such constructions that has a bicellular cross-section. The contr ol techniques required to construct such a long bridge (800 m), the ef fects of creep and the solutions to the problems encountered in restar ting construction and completing the bridge after a long delay in the work are described.
