Seismic Design Considerations in Construction of the World’s Tallest Bridge, Noney Railway Bridge, Manipur, India

Organised by: Indian Society of Earthquake Technology (ISET), Pune Chapter and Department of Civil Engineering, COEP Technological University, Pune

ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

The session, to be delivered by Mr. Saibaba Ankala, will explore the engineering and seismic design challenges associated with the iconic Noney Railway Bridge, a key component of the 111-km Jiribam–Imphal railway project. The project is expected to reduce travel time between Jiribam and Imphal from more than 10 hours by road to less than 2 hours by rail, significantly enhancing regional connectivity, economic growth, tourism, and strategic transportation links, including the proposed Trans-Asian Rail Network. A major highlight of the webinar will be the discussion on the bridge’s world-record railway pier standing 141 metres high, designed and constructed with advanced seismic safety measures to ensure resilience in a seismically active region.
