Abstract
Odin's Bridge is a 900 m long bridge closing a gap in a circular road that is an integral part of the infrastructure of the city of Odense, Denmark. The bridge comprises a 194 m swing bridge crossing a 80 m wide navigation canal. The swing bridge consists of two equal rotating parts designed as monoplane structures in steel. The outstanding feature of the swing bridge is the new concept of the 12 m diameter sliding bearings on which the swing bridge sections rotate. The design commenced in September 2009 and the bridge was inaugurated for service in June 2014.
