INTRODUCTION
A bridge which floats on the surface of the water.
No need of piers Cables.
Supported by barge-or-boat-like pontoons.
While pontoon bridges are usually temporary structures.
Permanent floating bridges are economic construction.

SITE SELECTION For crossing large bodies of water with unusual depth. Very soft bottom where piers are impractical. For a site where the water is 2 to 5 km wide, 30 to 60 m deep and there is a very soft bottom.

DESIGN CRITERIA
It will be a long life structure & low life-cycle cost
It should meet functional, economical, and practical requirements.
Perform reliably and be comfortable to ride on under normal service conditions.
Sustain damage from accidental loads and extreme storms without sinking.
Safeguard against flooding and progressive failure.

PONTOONS
These are the foundation for floating bridge.
Simply hollow, water light vessels.
Can be made up with even also heavy materials such as concrete.

TYPES OF PONTOONS
There are two kind of pontoons are commonly used :
1. Continues pontoon (Fig. 1.1.1)
2. Separate pontoon (Fig. 1.1.2)

ANCHORING SYSTEM
For keep the bridge stationary and stable.
Anchors with Mooring lines used for stability.
The anchors are heavy structures.
They take care about the longitudinal& transverse loads.

There are many types of anchors there:
Eg: 1. Type A (fig. 1.2.1)2. Type B (fig. 1.2.2)3. Type C (fig. 1.2.3)3. Type D (fig. 1.2.4)

ADVANTAGES OF FLOATING BRIDGE
1. Cost effective 2. Easy construction3. No disturbance for Ocean biodiversity.4. Do not directly affected by ground
shakings from earthquakes.

CONCLUSIONWe can construct any type of construction over water in future.
There is no need for conventional piers or foundations.
However, an anchoring or structural system is needed to maintain transverse and longitudinal alignments of the bridge.
A floating bridge is basically a beam on an elastic foundation and supports. Vertical loads are resisted by buoyancy.
Transverse and longitudinal loads are resisted by a system of mooring lines or structural elements.
