Two projects recommended by the China Highway Society were awarded the Outstanding Engineering Award by the International Road Federation

The IRF Global Outstanding Engineering Award (GRA) ceremony was held on November 20, 2020 local time (USA). Two projects recommended by China Highway Society were awarded the GRA Outstanding Engineering Award (R & D) and Quality Management Award by IRF Global in 2020.

1. The “Gonghe – Yushu Expressway” project declared by CCCC First Highway Survey and Design Research Institute Co., Ltd. won the research and development award.

The main challenges facing the construction of the Gongyu-Expressway are the extremely sensitive permafrost geology under the conditions of rapid warming and the fragile ecosystem at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters.
For cold area highway construction safety and health design of huge difficulty, national highway engineering safety and health in alpine tundra key laboratory has established the advanced system theory, republican – yushu highway has become the world’s highest quality highway ecological environmental protection, set up a new milestone in the field of permafrost engineering.

2. The “Jinan to Qingdao Expressway Reconstruction and Expansion Project” declared by Shandong Expressway Co., Ltd. won the Quality Management Award.

Ji-Qingdao Expressway is a heavy-haul traffic artery connecting Jinan and Qingdao, with a total length of 309.2 kilometers. The four-lane highway was expanded into eight-lane highway, with a total investment of 29.796 billion yuan. The construction started in June 2016, and it was completed and opened to traffic five months in advance.
The long-life pavement design, backfilling and large-width pavement forming technology adopted in the Ji-Qing Expressway Reconstruction and Expansion Project can effectively improve the durability of the pavement and shorten the construction period.
In addition, the application of new technology has realized the large-scale reuse of old road waste materials.
The technical achievements of this project can provide technical reference for a large number of reconstruction and expansion projects in the later stage.

 

According to the cooperation agreement between China Society of Highway and IRF Global, China Society of Highway is the only project recommendation channel for the GRA Award in China, and is responsible for the organization, evaluation and recommendation of the award application.
China highway society had recommended aizhai bridge in hunan province, zhejiang jia salt bridge, nyingchi to Lhasa in Tibet highway GRAA design awards and other important awards, vigorously promote the traffic engineering in China in the field of planning, design, management and so on the advanced technology and ideas to the world, promote the communication and development between transportation in the world.
