One of the major projects of its kind in Pakistan, Lyari Expressway is a 38 km long freeway constructed along Lyari River in Karachi. It by-passes the city’s busy corridor starting from Sohrab Goth and ending at Mauripur.
The expressway has multiple elevated segments with simple and continuous span post-tensioning from 25m to 80m.
I-girders and box girders utilizing cables from 8/0.5″ to 24/0.5″ were used in the construction of the elevated bridge segments.
All stressing and grouting services and prestressing supplies other than strands were provided by Stronghold. In addition, 66 pot bearings were also provided by Stronghold in this project.
