3. • Abstract
• The population of Nagpur and vehicles on road are
ever increasing leading to problems like traffic,
pollution and high fuel consumption.
• Considering all this ―THE NAGPUR METRO comes as a
huge relief for the people of Nagpur.
• There are no doubts about the social benefits of
the Nagpur metro. It will help in reducing traffic and
pollution in the city and more important save a lot of
time for the daily commuters. As a part of this project,
the Nagpur Metro has been analyzed from the
economic point of view. Considerable effort has been
put into understanding the economic viability of the
Nagpur Metro. A lot of analysis is done taking into
consideration past and present data
5. Introduction
• Nagpur is the third largest city of Maharashtra and also the
winter capital of the state. With a population of
approximately 25 lakhs. Nagpur Metropolitan Area is the 13th
largest urban conglomeration in India. It has also recently
been ranked as the cleanest city and the second greenest city
of India. In addition to being the seat of annual winter session
of Maharashtra state assembly "Vidhan Sabha", Nagpur is also
a major commercial and political center of the Vidarbha
region, It is also known as "Orange City" for being a major
trade center of oranges that are cultivated in the region.
6. METHODOLOGY
For the elevated sections it is recommended to
have pre-cast segmental construction for super
structure for the viaduct. For stations also the
superstructure is generally of pre-cast members.
The pre-cast construction will have following
advantages:-
• Reduction in construction period due to concurrent
working for substructure and superstructure.
• For segmental, pre-cast element (of generally 3.0m
length), transportation from construction depot to
site is easy and economical.
7. METHODOLOGY
Minimum inconvenience is caused to the public
utilizing the road as the superstructure launching
is carried out through launching girder requiring
narrow width of the road.
• As the pre-cast elements are cast on production
line in a construction depot, very good quality
can be ensured.
• The method is environment friendly as no
concreting work is carried at site for the
superstructure
10. INTRODUCTION
• Construction package Reach3 of NMRCL is
consisting of const. of 10 elevated station on
East west corridor.
• PRE-CAST I GIRDER have been proposed by
NMRCL of construction of elevated station.
The length of span varies from 13m to 16m.

• C)Fixing of side shutters
• D)Concreting
• E)Curing of concrete
• F)De-tensioning and cutting of strand
• G)Lifting of I girder from bed and storage
• H)End treatment of cut strands

27. CONCLUSION
• In retrospect, the precast structural system and
method of construction have proven to be ideal
for this project. The various logistic and
construction problems encountered on the job
were relatively minor and quickly solved. The
structural solution adopted in Monterrey is cost
efficient, not as much through its quantities of
construction materials as through its high degree
of repetition and its simple and sturdy structures,
which proved quick and easy to erect.
