flat horizontal soffit at the pier\/abutment support points and vertical orientation once in place and; substantially reduced tonnage of pre-stressed concrete required for a given span.<\/p>\n<p>The implementation of this structural solution in the Pacific Highway, is a result of our outgoing commitment to provide innovation, as the best vehicle to achieve efficient solutions and improve the design and construction integration.<\/p>\n<p>From Ferrovial Agroman Australia, we would like to thank you the Institution of Engineers Australia for inviting us to participate in this event.<\/p>\n
