Abstract
This paper sets out the challenges from the perspective of the designer associated with the construction of the River Dee Bridge built by the balanced cantilever method. The importance of managing the construction sequence and its impact on both the design and programme are discussed. Monitoring and managing the loads in the temporary works were crucial to ensuring the stability of the structure. The issues associated with the temporary jacking system and the monitoring adopted are also considered.
