Genesis of Selection of Bridge Form
 
As per the above study, an Extradosed bridge option is proposed based on the following
points:
1.
Aesthetics
2.
Engineering Aspects
Flexible structure preferable in high seismic zone
Low fatigue than Cable stayed bridge etc.
3.
Accessibility during Construction
4.
Serviceability & adaptation to future requirements
Can increase the load carrying capacity
5.
Cost of Construction

The Dhubri-Phulbari Bridge project aims to connect Dhubri town in Assam and Phulbari town in Meghalaya, reducing travel time and distance significantly. The project involves the construction of a four-lane bridge with navigational requirements meeting IWAI guidelines. Various bridge design options such as Through Type Truss Bridge, Bowstring Arch Bridge, Cable Stayed Bridge, Segmental Balanced Cantilever Bridge, and Extradosed Bridge are considered, each with different costs and construction times. Images and details of the project's genesis and form are provided.
