Prestressing. Business in this field, the original speciality
of the Freyssinet group, held up very well in 2000.
Civil engineering works
In Puerto-Rico, for the construction of the
new San Juan metro, the group is involved
in the building of several viaducts
with a total length of 9 km.
In Spain, Freyssinet has secured an important
contract on the new high-speed rail link
between Madrid and Barcelona. The work
includes participation in the construction
of two sections (eight viaducts), the supply
and installation of the prestressing systems.
In Thailand, the group won the contract
to supply, install and provide technical
assistance about the prestressing systems
and for the design of the construction
methods for the Wat Nakorn In bridge
and its approach works (5 contracts in total).
In Australia, the group supplied and installed
the prestressing systems for an 8.5 km railway
viaduct linking Brisbane to the international
airport.
Buildings
Again in Australia, it is noteworthy that in
March the company finished the prestressing
of the floors of the Park Plazza office building
(210 m high, 53 floors, four of which
are underground), a total of 120,000 m 2
of prestressed concrete slabs.
In Great Britain, work started in late 1999
on the new exhibition centre on the Thames,
the ExCel centre (65,000 m 2, opening in 2001),
with a high load bearing capacity (20 kN/m 2)
for heavy exhibitions, was finished. The group
also built the two truck access road slabs
and the West Podium slab, giving a total
area of 78,600 m 2 of prestressed concrete
slabs built in record time.
In Singapore, the group prestressed slabs
and girders for the construction of nine
residential buildings with 19 stories and
of a 7-level car park, totalling 104,000 m 2
of prestressing work.
Industry
In Taiwan, the construction of the three
largest LPG (liquefied petroleum gas)
reservoirs (80,000 m 3 each) on the island
at Mia-Lao has been completed in the
Formosa Plastics Complex.
In Turkey, Freysas has supplied and installed
the prestressing systems for three gas tanks
in an LNG (liquefied natural gas) storage
complex at Aliaga. The project started
in February 2000 and should end in
April 2001.

Cable stayed structures
Cable stayed bridges
Suspension bridges and footbridges
In the United States, the group finished
installing the stay cables of the bridge over
the Charles River in Boston, which has an
average span of 227 m. Its originality lies in its
width (a world record) and the asymmetrical
nature of two carriageways out of a total of 10,
which are placed in cantilever to the east
of the bridge.
In France, work has finished on the bridge
over the Rhône linking Tarascon with Beaucaire.
On this 410 m long bridge, with a central span
In France, Freyssinet, as main contractor,
constructed a 235 m span footbridge at Tours,
a light structure designed by the architect
Alain Spielmann crossing the river Cher.
In Belgium, for the Pont de l’Observatoire, a
structure with a total length of 200 m designed
to link the future Guillemins TGV station (near
Liège) and the E25 motorway, Freyssinet supplied
and installed 42 hangers and the anchors
for the foundations of the hammer piers
supporting the deck of the additional viaduct.
INAUGURATION OF THE MY THUAN BRIDGE (VIETNAM)
On the 21 st of May 2000, the My Thuan bridge, crossing the north
arm of the Mekong river, was inaugurated. Located 140 km south
of Ho Chi Minh City, it is the first cable stayed bridge in Vietnam.
It measures 1,535 m in length, 23.66 m in width and has a main
bridge (660 m in total) cable stayed by Freyssinet and two access
viaducts. The My Thuan bridge was opened to traffic at the end
of 2000, after 3 years under construction.

of 192 m, Freyssinet supplied and installed
the 96 stay cables.
In the Dominican Republic, the group supplied
and installed 88 stay cables on a 606 m bridge
over the Rio Higuamo, at San Pedro de Macoris.
Another notable achievement of last year was
the completion of the Seohae bridge in Korea,
over the bay of Asan. On this 7,310 m long
structure, Freyssinet was involved both on the
main viaduct (prestressing the towers, supply
and installation of the stay cables) and
on 52 access spans (prefabrication of the
segments, deck erecting equipment, prestressing
the deck and the piers, supply and installation
of the bearings).
Freyssinet group

In The Netherlands, Freyssinet provided
suspensions made of 22 Macalloy bars and
two stay cables for a bridge for pedestrians
and cyclists specially designed to fit into
a landscaped park located near Amsterdam's
Schipol airport.
In Poland, Freyssinet has just finished
constructing three cable stayed footbridges:
the one at Bedzin, located on route No.1
linking Warsaw with Katiwice, the Luk Gandski
footbridge on motorway No.4 linking Warsaw
with Gliwice, and another at Luk Erosa,
near Opole, also on the A4.
In Romania, Freyssinet supplied and installed
the 56 hangers of an arch bridge with a span
of 172 m, providing the main road access to the
town of Cernavoda, in the Constanta region.
Lastly in Spain, Freyssinet installed the stay
cables of the Murta stadium roof in Xativa
near Valencia.
France, bridge linking
Tarascon and Beaucaire
over the Rhône.
Turkey, LNG storage complex
at Aliaga.
France, Deux Lions
footbridge at Tours.
Improvement and durability of structures
Repair
In Kosovo the renovation of the west bridge
at Mitrovica was achieved by associating
the local communities, who had clashed during
the conflict that shook the region in 1999.
In France, the total renovation of a 240 m
travelling crane located in a factory belonging
to Ciments Calcia in the Yvelines department
should also be mentioned.
Another emergency repair was made at the
Vincennes zoo (near Paris) for the big cat house,
for the Algazelles alley and for the keepers'
station alley.
Again in France, the repair of the Saint-Just-SaintRambert bridge, to the north of Saint-Etienne,
on the Loire is worthnoting.
In Spain, various repair works were undertaken
in 2000, notably, the Puente Vell in Bocairent
near Valencia.
Replacing equipment
In Malaysia, the stay cables were partially
replaced on the Penang bridge (inaugurated
in 1985) without interrupting traffic. The work
began in February and finished in December.
In France, the suspension cables of the
Chartrouse bridge, in the Camargue, were
replaced with new cables designed by Freyssinet
(FNTP innovation award in January 2001).
This 80 year-old bridge was showing signs
of very advanced corrosion of its cables.
As well as completely replacing them,
the maximum load was increased
from 12 to 19 tonnes.

In Kosovo the renovation of the west bridge
at Mitrovica was achieved by associating
the local communities, who had clashed during
the conflict that shook the region in 1999.
In France, the total renovation of a 240 m
travelling crane located in a factory belonging
to Ciments Calcia in the Yvelines department
should also be mentioned.
Another emergency repair was made at the
Vincennes zoo (near Paris) for the big cat house,
for the Algazelles alley and for the keepers'
station alley.
Again in France, the repair of the Saint-Just-SaintRambert bridge, to the north of Saint-Etienne,
on the Loire is worthnoting.
In Spain, various repair works were undertaken
in 2000, notably, the Puente Vell in Bocairent
near Valencia.
Replacing equipment
In Malaysia, the stay cables were partially
replaced on the Penang bridge (inaugurated
in 1985) without interrupting traffic. The work
began in February and finished in December.
In France, the suspension cables of the
Chartrouse bridge, in the Camargue, were
replaced with new cables designed by Freyssinet
(FNTP innovation award in January 2001).
This 80 year-old bridge was showing signs
of very advanced corrosion of its cables.
As well as completely replacing them,
the maximum load was increased
from 12 to 19 tonnes.

the Régébéton® process was carried out
at the Kodak plant at Châlon-sur-Saône.
In Italy, work started in October 1999
and has continued this year on the six viaducts
on the Brenner Pass, between Bolzano
and Chiusa (girder bridges dating from the end
of the sixties). The work on the upper side
includes waterproofing and the replacement
of expansion joints; and on the underside,
the concrete will be repaired. The work is
planned to finish in 2002.
Watertightness works carried out in France
included repair of water towers in Châtillon,
Rambouillet, Bouloc and Vacquier (both
in Haute-Garonne department) FreymingMerlebach, and repair of the Olivettes
dam in Hérault department.
In Spain, the restoration of the Santa Inès
In Kuwait, the general work on strengthening
and rebuilding four spans of the Bubiyan
bridge, destroyed during the Gulf war ended
during 2000. The works included the rebuilding
of the spans by assembling, the launching
of box girders and the strengthening of the deck
by additional prestressing.
In France, the Viosne viaduct, in the Val d’Oise
department, was strengthened by additional
prestressing.
Widening decks
In Vietnam, the Saigon bridge, to the north
of Ho Chi Min City, was widened from 19.1
to 24 m to deal with the increased traffic

capacity to 30 tonnes. Inaugurated on
the 30 th of June 2000 after two years work
with no interruption of the traffic, the bridge
has two new carriageways.
Strengthening and Protection
In France, we should note the strengthening
carried out from mid-April to mid-June on
the floor of three levels of a hospital building
in the Pas-de-Calais department. This was
done by the cold bonding of TFC® instead
of metal reinforcement. Working in this way
saved considerable time and meant that
the building could still be used without
interruption, as well as reducing the space
taken up by false ceilings.
Bonded TFC® fabric was also used from
mid-October to mid-December in the
rehabilitation project of an A7 motorway
bridge in the Drôme department.

Other historical monuments were restored;
the Sant Domenech convent, and, more original,
the blast-furnace of Sagunto, also in Spain.
Installing instruments and monitoring
In Portugal, instruments were installed at the
start of 2000 on the stay cables of the
Santarem bridge the group had finished
installing in December 1999 so that various
Portuguese institutions could check the
tensions at a later date.
The following works should also be mentioned:
accoustic monitoring of the Rande bridge
near Vigo in Spain, and analysis of concrete,
installation of sound instruments and
behavioural survey of an industrial building
suffering structural disorder at Suippes
(Marne department) in France.
Retaining walls and bridge abutments
Tunnels and underpasses
In the United States, on the Moranci mines project,
composite abutments (TerraClass and Terratrel)
were used to create a road bridge.
In Venezuela, a new motorway required the
construction of about fifteen bridge abutments
and their access ramps.
In Europe, the most notable projects were,
in France, the construction of 12,000 m2 of walls
on the A51 motorway and in Spain, where several
motorway projects resulted in the construction
of retaining walls and abutments.
In Malaysia, 20,000 m2 of walls were designed and
supplied as part of the construction of the elevated
motorway from Ampang to Kuala Lumpur.
In Australia, the group has won a contract
to provide the abutments for 12 bridges to be
built on the Kwinana motorway and to build
a 17 m high wall in TerraMet (semi-elliptical
facing elements in galvanised steel)
for the Pilbara iron mine.
The construction of tunnels and underpasses
was also very important in 2000.
In Great Britain, the creation of the
Millennium Coastal Park on industrial
wasteland interspersed with railway lines
required the construction of two landscaped
tunnels covering the lines. Built using
TechSpan® arches, this project received
the Institution of Civil Engineers Prize and
two nominations for the British Industrial
Construction prize, thus recognising the
success of this turnkey project executed
within a tight budget and lead times.
In Spain, TechSpan® arches were installed
on the new AVE high-speed rail line under
construction between Madrid and Barcelona.
In Australia, an arch was installed to carry
a motorway over a railway line near Perth.
Associated with retaining walls in Reinforced
Earth®, the half-shells were installed in two
days, which is a real technological feat.

Improvement and durability of soils
Improving existing works
Another star project of last year using the
TechSpan® technology was carried out in Italy
to widen the A1 motorway between Milan
and Naples from two to three carriageways.
It consisted in widening two tunnels near Orte
a Fiano, to the north of Rome, by 11 m. The work
was done at night, so as not to interfere
with the traffic.
As far as road widening is concerned, the group
constructed TerraTrel walls combined with
60 m, to create an area of land whose surface
has small irregularities thus allowing the setting
up of an activity estate.
In Germany, the consolidation of land fill allowed
the IBM research centre at Mainz, whose soil
covered an old quarry, to be extended. Ménard
tested dynamic compaction on a limited
area and was thus able to apply a maximum
vibration abatement procedure in order not
to disrupt the computer production operations

anchor rods that pass through the Reinforced
Earth® banks on the RN 2 at Kei Cuttings,
in South Africa. They ensure the short
and long term stability of the excavations
of this structure.
In France, a historic monument (a church
built in 1776) strengthened at Saint-Nicolasla-Chapelle in Savoie. The building, built as
an overhang on a spur of rock and on a morainic
bank that slips 1 mm a year, had many cracks.
The strengthening consisted of installing
vertical micropiles associated with an anchored
wall to support the terrain.
In situ soil treatment
Many soil treatments were carried out in 2000.
In France, of note was the dynamic compaction
of 4 hectares of open cast mines near
Saint-Etienne with a land fill height of about
Freyssinet group
page 12
and requiring a vibration threshold of less
than 70 micrometers per second. The whole
site of 65,000 m2 was treated in 6 months
and the improvement measured by regular
pressiometric drillings.
In Korea, soil improvement works – in heavy
clay and at great depths – were carried out
by preloading associated with vertical drains.
This solution was chosen in preference
to traditional solutions using piles. The hockey
stadium at Kangso Gu, near to Pusan, will be
built on this land (more than 20 hectares
including the main stadium, which will
accommodate 20,000 spectators).
The first phase, now completed, included
the installation of more than 700,000 linear
metres of vertical drains, the second phase,
involving more than a million linear metres
of drains, started in July 2000.

Noteworthy also was the completion of the
work on the Jangyoo water treatment station
(started in August 1998) with impressive results:
85,000 m2 compacted to a depth of 6 m
using the novel Vacuum® solution.
Bulk treatment
with incorporation of materials
In France, important work has been carried out
on the Paris Oise development area at Longueil.
Dynamic compaction combined with stone
blocks has improved the land before 73,000 m2
of building are constructed. The last two phases
consisted in installing stone columns using
vibratory compacter with acounting damping.
In Reims, the group built 30,000 metres
of controlled modulus columns (CMC) in only two
months and a half, to stabilise the soil on which
a new water treatment station was to be built.
France, Paris Oise development
area at Longueil.
Another important site was the Bouc Bel Air
project in Southern France. The work consisted
in improving 12,000 m2 of soil to compensate for
a difference in level between the two platforms.
The project was successfully converted
in three months.
In Malaysia, stone columns were created on the
Kajang ring road, to the south of Kuala Lumpur,
on a surface area of 4,700 m2. The works were
carried out using the bottom-feed process.

As from 1st January 2000, consolidation of Freyssinet S.A. (Spain) and its subsidiaries, previously through the global integration method, is now
through the proportional integration method. This modification results from the agreements concluded with the Freyssinet S.A.’s Spanish shareholder, who today holds 50% of the capital. All balance sheet and profit & loss account items are affected by this change.
