The Pelješac Bridge is a Extradosed cable-stayed bridge with the span arrangement 84 + 108 + 108 + 189,5 + 5 x 285 + 189,5 + 108 + 108 + 84 m = 2404 m under construction in Croatia at present. The purpose of this bridge is to achieve territorial continuity of the Republic of Croatia by connecting the southern exclave comprising the bulk of Dubrovnik-Neretva County with the remainder of the Croatian mainland. China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) Joint Venture (JV) won the bidding of this project following the FIDIC Red Book Contract Condition in April, 2018. As the Contractor CRBC JV executed detail design with their own advantages based on the main design, which was issued by the Client Croatian Roads. In the detail design, the feasibility of construction technology of each element is firstly considered by CRBC JV technical staffs. After that, the other parts of detail design, i.e. the design for execution were prepared according to the construction technology and the main design. In the mentioned progress, the Contractor should communicate with the designer of the main design as closely as possible for higher efficiency. CRBC JV prepared the detail design for all elements of the whole bridge, including piles foundation, pile caps, pylons and piers, steel superstructures and etc. The main detail design ideas and details of each element will be introduced and described in this article for providing references for implementation of similar projects in the future.
