The construction of the Millau Viaduct showcases several groundbreaking techniques:
Innovative materials: The pylons and deck utilized high-performance steel, resistant to wind and corrosion.
Segmental construction: The deck was assembled in segments on the ground, then lifted and placed onto the pylons, minimizing disruption to traffic below.
Advanced wind engineering: The bridge’s aerodynamic design guarantees stability even in strong winds.
