Caisson superstructure slab
The caisson superstructure slab is built of concrete in situ, placed both directly on the ripraps of the back cells and on prefabricated supporting slabs at the level of the
front-cells' roof.

The superstructure slab is 0.50-m wide on the roof where the final layer of concrete is spread for the formation of castings.

At the locations of ramps of the car ferries, enhanced reinforcement is placed.
