Abstract:
Annacis Bridge crosses the South Arm of the Fraser River near Vancouver, British Columbia. When completed in 1986 it will be the longest span cable-stayed bridge in the World. This paper presents an overview of the design and construction of the bridge focusing on the concrete portions of this major structure.
