The viaduct crosses the Riudellots river with a total length of 164m . It is located in the High Speed Line Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona-French border, between Barcelona and the French border.

The static scheme is the classical for railway bridges:
– The deck is a prestressed concrete continuous box beam, 2.64m constant depth, supported on reinforced concrete piers and abutments.
– Longitudinal fixed point, against horizontal actions, Is placed on an abutment. The deck is transversally fixed to all piers by means of pot bearings.The piers have a solid “I” cross section

It is noteworthy that the viaduct is located in an area of moderate seismic activity, with basic soil acceleration a = 0.09g, this action has being decisive in the design of many elements of the structure.

The foundations of the central piers should be deep, with piles 1500 mm diameter. The foundations of the extreme piles and abutments can be direct.

The deck is constructed by the span by span method on a portal frame falsework supported on the ground. The concreting of cross section has been done in two sub-phases, botttom slab + webs and top slab.
