This allowed the union of the individual elements (a total of 141 unions were made) in Georgia. The resulting beams are an impressive 48 meters long. The maximum free spans of the bridge are 84 metres. The bridge crosses the Enguri River and connects the Georgian resort of Anaklia and the neighboring city of Ganmukhuri.
