<p>The 12,5 km long New Coastal Road at La Réunion Island is being built at sea. Half part of this project is a precast cantilever viaduct of 5.4 km along the seashore, supporting significant loads during construction and operation such as cyclonic events (wind and swells), seismic event, collision loads… The all weather road is separated into 7 viaducts of equal length to allow the displacements under temperature, creep and shrinkage per viaduct.</p><p>As the supports must withstand significant lateral and longitudinal forces, they call for a specific design.</p>
