Our bridges

A strong bridge that is ideal for longer spans.

These bridges are designed for pedestrian / cycleway loads or to take a 0.85HN loading up to HNHO72 (or overload). They can be made in modular sections, so the bridge can be easily relocated and transformed into a shorter span bridge. The width of Upright Truss bridges can also be customised to suit your needs. The superstructure of an Upright Truss bridge sits above the deck rather than beneath it, allowing for lower approaches on either side. This is ideal when space is tight or the approach height needs to be kept to a minimum to avoid extra retaining work or to maintain a low gradient.

Customisable design

An accessible and versatile solution. Flexible spans and widths, and superstructure above the deck for maximum clearance and reduced approach heights.

Versatile load design

Engineered to support a wide range of loads, from pedestrian and cycleway use, to Full HN-HO-72 highway standards or higher.

Modular design

Flexible and reusable. Modular components are easily disassembled for relocation, adapted to shorter spans for multiple sites, or installed in challenging, hard-to-reach areas.

Ease of Inspection and Maintenance

The superstructure sits above the deck rather than beneath it. The open and upright framework allows for easy access to structural components for inspections and repairs.
