and topographical features of the sea bottom.

The bedrocks are about 15 meters to 20 meters deep in

the sea. Thus, they lead to reduce the number of pier as
much as possible and place in shallower parts.

 Esenler Viaduct
Esenler New Viaduct (Section 1 and 2) has been designed as a light rail transport system and construction
has been stopped after some time. Seismic retrofitting has become a necessity because of insufficient pile,
foundation and column capacities.

The construction siteis located on city center as a result

all kind of excavation, forage and jacketing in the site
may have caused traffic problems. In order to minimize
such operations in both viaducts, seismic isolators have
been used. In addition, concrete rail beam has been
used instead of ballast to reduce the weight of the bridge
superstructure.

The U section is used to increase the torsional stiffness

of the superstructure because of the horizontal curves
with small radius. Difficulty of superstructure geometry
has brought special solutions in the design.
