Temporary Access Portable Floating Bridge Heavy Loading Capacity For Inconvenient Traffice Areas

Temporary Access Floating Bridge With Heavy Loading Capacity For Inconvenient Traffice Areas

Description of Portable Floating Bridge

Floating bridges are uncommon in large part because the kinds of situations and environmental criteria for them are unusual. These bridges are mostly needed to connect heavily populated areas where there is a very wide and very deep body of water, along with extremely soft lake- or ocean-bottom soil, factors that prohibit conventional bridge piers (the structure on which the bridge surface rests). They are cost-effective in comparison to traditional bridges in scenarios where the water is more than 100 feet (30 meters) deep, and a half mile (900 meters) wide.

Specification of Portable Floating Bridge

Application

The floating bridge can be used for pedestrian, road and railway. The structure is not complicated, and the racking is convenient, but the maintenance cost is high. It can be used as an emergency rescue facility or as a temporary transportation facility. It can be used in wartime to ensure that the army can quickly pass through the military floating bridge. In order to increase its mobility, it is usually made of light metal.

Advantage

Floating bridges can offer advantages over fixed bridges in a number of ways.
A floating bridge is something that can be put into place quickly, and they are also inexpensive in terms of cost. A modern floating bridge can also offer the type of durability associated with a fixed bridge.
Floating bridges can be utilized with pedestrians in mind, and are capable of coping with vehicles. Floating bridges are safe, and floating bridges are becoming more of a long term feature in some countries around the world.
Because floating bridges can be modular they can also be easily extended, which helps to make them cost effective. In addition, the low maintenance involved with a floating bridge is another reason why they are a good option for many local authorities to consider.

How do floating bridges float?
Floating bridges are made of large water-tight concrete pontoons connected rigidly end-to-end, upon which the roadway is built. Despite their heavy concrete composition, the weight of the water displaced by the pontoons is equal to the weight of the structure (including all traffic), which allows the bridge to float.

Our company

Our experienced team is focused on your steel bridge project's success, from start to finish. Our proven ability to identify and overcome design inconsistencies, potential problems with erection, and shipping obstacles results in the fabrication of structural steel that is right the first time, helping you avoid costly construction delays.

Proper project coordination and efficient delivery of the structural steel to your bridge project is a key factor in its ultimate success. This is what gives us the leading edge.

From material purchase and tracing, planning compilation, drawing detailing, production arrangement, quality inspection, to on-going painting, packing and delivering, we have separated department to strictly control process, quality and traceability, so that the perfect Bailey/Belay/Baley Bridge can be made. 

Finally we would like to emphasize that not like other companies, nearly all machining parts and mechanical accessories are manufactured in our own shop as we have so many wonderful machines and workers inside. In this way, the quality, cost and delivery time can be ensured which eliminates other exterior factors’ influence.
