• in situ casting of full spans
• TT or box cross sections decks
• Special solutions for special bridge
projects
• Hydraulic operated main functions
• Labor saving solutions
• Easy to adjust to radius, slope and
span variations
• Easy installation of the rebar deck
prefabricated parts
• Can be made symmetrical
Movable Scaffolding System
Overhead Solution
MENU END
NEXTPREVIOUS
• Supported on top of columns
• External formwork panels suspended
by hangers and threaded bars from
MSS main structure
• Formwork can be designed in special
cases to open horizontally like in a
drawer rather than rotate around the
hangers
• Can be made symmetrical
• Usually easier to assemble behind the
abutment
• Usually easier to move from one deck
to the parallel one

• Supporting brackets self relocation
without the need for cranes
• Easy to use above water or with very
high columns

NEXT
• One concept
• Many different applications
• Usually made to max. 5m length
segments, but may be made to
measure
• Segment weight typically range in
between 80ton and 550ton
• Easily adjustable to the segment
variations
• Reduced weight, saving prestressing
• Easy to assemble

• Excellent alternative to the classical
overhead systems
• Free space to install the stays
• Easy to install pre-assembled rebar
cages

• Simple solution to support the precast
concrete segments
• Two independent halves only
connected by the gantry crane,
allowing to easy transversal
adjustments
• Hinge connection makes possible to be
used at decks with horizontal radius as
small as 75m
• Hydraulic underslung supports allows
correction of any misalignments
Launching Gantry
Overhead
MENU END
PREVIOUS
• Solution especially suitable for
situations where the space bellow the
deck is limited and also if there are
significant variations in the deck width
• The Combo Launching Gantry version
allows for the assembling of precast
segments both by the in fill method
and the cantilever method
• Utilization of special hinges to run the
system with horizontal curves up to
350m and spans lengths above 50m

• Simple steel supporting structure
equipped with a lifting unit
• The lifting unit can be equipped by
winches or strand jacks depending of
the elevation height and segment
weight
• Launching and leveling hydraulic

MENU END
• Especially suited for projects that
require minimal deck deformations
and fast construction
• The Full Span Launching method is
part of a wider set of devices that
operate all together as the gantry
crane/straddle carrier and the special
multi wheeled transporters
• Capacity: 500-1800ton
• Spans up to 60m

MENU END
• One of the most commonly used
construction methods for standard
bridges
• Cost efficient, fast and technically
flexible solution
• Specially suitable for bridges and
viaducts with very high columns and
difficult access conditions
