Load tests carried out.
In preparation for the completion of the bridge over the Logone River between Yagoua in Cameroon and Bongor in Chad, loading tests were carried out on March 15, 2024. These were extended to the bridge over the Mayo Boneye. The length of the bridge over the Logone River is 620m between the abutments, with a 7m-wide two-way carriageway, two 1.5m sidewalks and access roads on the Cameroon and Chad sides, for a total length of 15 km..
Load tests are a decisive stage in the construction of structures, as they provide an overall measurement of the behavior of a structure under the effect of an external load, with the aim of assessing the acceptability of the structure with regard to its function of supporting traffic.
