43EME CONGRES ANNUEL DE L'IBTTA - CONSTRUCTION ET EXPLOITATION EN TERRAINS DIFFICILES ET DANS LES ESPACES RESTREINTS : L'EXEMPLE DU CONTOURNEMENT AUTOROUTIER DE NICE

THIS PAPER WAS PRESENTED AT THE 43RD CONGRESS OF THE INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE, TUNNEL AND TURNPIKE ASSOCIATION, WHICH TOOK PLACE IN PARIS, 20-24TH SEPTEMBER 1975. DETAILS ARE GIVEN OF THE SPECIAL CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES USED FOR THE MOTORWAY DIVERSION IN NICE, THE ECONOMIC FACTOR HAVING THE GREATEST INFLUENCE ON THEIR SELECTION. THE NUMBER OF VIADUCTS AND TUNNELS WAS REDUCED IN FAVOUR OF LARGE-SCALE EARTHWORKS AND DIVERSIONS. EARTHMOVING OPERATIONS GAVE RISE TO NUMEROUS PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULT ACCESS TO THE SITES, OF THE NECESSITY OF PRELIMINARY DRAINAGE, AND OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE TRACKS ON THE SITES.
