Building and installing the mechanical structures of these girder bridges has brought different challenges from those of our normal hydropower related projects.  There were a large number of holes to be drilled and all the pieces needed to assemble at the "remote" site without problems.  Identification and checking of the large number of component parts was a challenge in itself
