Aerodynamic panels have been mounted along the facade of a road arch on the Crimean bridge across the Kerch Strait.




These structures are intended to minimize the wind effect on the bridge and increase comfort during its operation, according to the media center of the Crimean Bridge. As the center’s representative told Construction.RU, strong winds and storms are typical for the Kerch Strait. In particular, the wind speed can reach 40 m/c.

With this in mind, builders of the Crimean bridge conducted all the necessary research and tests, as a result of which the aerodynamic panels of a specific shape have been designed. Such aerodynamic panels represent almost 200 metal elements in the shape of an airplane wing. They form a kind of “ledge” along the facade of the road part of the Crimean bridge.
